He became editor of Print and Revolution briefly in 1930, during which time the journal primarily showcased the work of the Litfront literary group before ceasing publication.[2] He was editor of Khudozhestvennaya Literatura, (the State Publishing House of Fiction in the Soviet Union) from 1934 until July 1937.[1]
He was arrested on 26 July 1937 and charged with espionage and participation in an "anti-Soviet Trotskyist right-wing organisation". He was convicted and executed in Moscow on November 26, 1937. He was buried in the Donskoye Cemetery.[1]
