And maybe all my years of struggling with Russian were worth to one day stumble upon her text. I also bought her two other books, "Dua for Unfaithful" and "Terra Nilius" that just came out. She says the three form trilogy, she says it was painful writing the second book. I'm bracing myself.

I hope many more people will be able to find such insightful and caring conversations as I did with this book!

My editor, the anonymous peer reviewers, my colleagues and friends, this review forum that is forthcoming, have been incredibly supportive, productively critical and inspiring.

thinking about for so long. It is priceless to find someone who understands your ideas (and flaws) completely, not just on surface, not just "so what, the revolution failed" but truly, it takes thousands to shift the political imagination.

Incredibly grateful to this experience!
