A remarkable book that shed light on the Russian state of mind. From the bottom to the top. A real joy to read despite its physically and emotional weight. My only real objection is that I drags out the end too much, but nonetheless this is 5 star bo ...more

This book starts off really interesting exploring various persons reactions to rejection and how they are radicalised by the experience. Almost like a Chuck Palahniuk book, with its poignant and extreme view of the world. But after the first three or ...more
