Red Plenty by Francis Spufford: What if the Soviet 'miracle' had worked, and the communists had discovered the secret to prosperity, progress and happiness...?
Klappentext zu „Red Plenty “
Paperback edition of the bestselling history of the Soviet Union, which concentrates on the heady years of the late 1950s, when the Soviet dream appeared to be working. It's about a moment in history when the Union looked forward to a future of rich communists and envious capitalists, when Moscow would out-glitter Manhattan and every Lada would be better engineered than a Porsche. 'Francis Spufford evokes the chaos with boundless comic sympathy and a piercing eye for historic detail.' Clive JamesAutoren-Porträt von Francis Spufford

"A hammer-and-sickle version of Altman's Nashville, with central committees replacing country music . . . [Spufford] has one of the most original minds in contemporary literature." --Nick Hornby, "The Believer" "A thrilling book that all enthusiasts of the Big State should read." --Michael Burleigh, "The Sunday Telegraph"
