jacobinreads's review against another edition
4.75
This is a multifaceted and deeply empathetic look at the ravages of the brutal transitions and rapacious systems of the 'new' Russia, the nostalgia of generations of people, and the penury the everyday Russian is forced into by a new era of police brutality, robber-baron oligarchs, criminality, and the greedy ambitions of the "democratic" Russian state. However, this book also chronicles amazing and beautiful strength and character in the face of these tragedies, and adds a vivid dimension to the average citizen's thoughts, feelings, and way of life.
Reading this book, I really felt a strange parallel to the great Russian literature of the past, it reflected deeply on the soul, in a sort of ethnographic way. I highly recommend it.
