Title: !
Product review: This book is completely out of date. The problem with most books on Russian culture is their narrow-mindedness; they all follow the same old path established at the beginning of the 20th century by White Russians who escaped the revolution and created the history of Russia and Russian culture for Westerners. Such "histories" are one-sided, they see the subject from one pro-Russian prospective. Ukraine and Ukrainian culture/art do not exist in such books. But Ukrainian culture always was the avant-garde of MOST Russian cultural developments. It is time for scholars to realize it. The Cold War is over.
