“Revolutions cannot abide half-tones; they must ruthlessly divide the world into two opposing camps.”
Dyomin’s extraordinary first-person account of Russia's lower depths, brilliantly evocative of the color and violence that lurk behind Communism's stolid gray façade—probably the fullest picture yet given of life on the wrong side of the law in the Soviet Union.
