Reading in the Time of Monsters 006 - Surkov, "Almost Zero" or, Russian Elites Write Dumb Books Too
This one is was a Chieftain request! If you subscribe to Melendy Avenue Review at the Chieftain level, you, too, can request a book for me to review (within reason- needs to be in English, under 100,000 words, sourceable, etc). This one is a novel by Kremlin wire-puller Vladislav Surkov, and it proves that Putin’s goons can be just as pretentious, self-important, and bad at aping culture as any Ivy League or Oxbridge fancylad. Enjoy!
