Notes This poem suggests extreme labour conditions related to steel production. As the collection in which this poem is included, *The Magnetic Mountain*, takes the Soviet city of Magnitogorsk, on the edge of the Urals, as a central motif representing Stalin’s industrialisation programme, this poem appears to consider human rights in the U.S.S.R. during the 1930s.
