5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing Funnier in Russian Lit, May 13, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Scenes from the Bathhouse: And Other Stories of Communist Russia (Ann Arbor Paperbacks) (Paperback)

Zoshchenko's riffs on the middling class ring as true in today's America.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful writing, May 19, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Scenes from the Bathhouse: And Other Stories of Communist Russia (Ann Arbor Paperbacks) (Paperback)

Although I have not read the whole book, the stories in it are superb. They each have their own comical sense, but behind them there is a greater meaning. They reflect so much about Communist Russia, while being still enjoyable reading. A must.

This review is from: Scenes from the Bathhouse: And Other Stories of Communist Russia (Ann Arbor Paperbacks) (Paperback)

I liked this collection.

However, most of my '20-something'students had no idea of communism, Russia/USSR, collective thinking, etc.
