In Soviet Union, book reviews You!!,
By
This review is from: New Soviet Science Fiction (Paperback)
Okay, seriously. I picked this book up around 1997 I think, at Twice Sold Tales in Seattle. I got it mostly to be iconoclastic, I think, and because I was curious about what sort of stories the Russians told themselves about the future. I mean, you get to learn about a culture though its fantacies, right? Isn't that what Thrawn said? I'm afraid it's mostly a dissapointment, I found a lot of the stories to be overly short and simplistic, and I had a sense that I was loosing something in the translation. I'm going to hang on to it though and leaf through it on rainy nights. When you're a kid during the waning years of the Cold War you can't help but have a morbid curiosity about what was going on behind the Iron Curtain and this is an interesting peak at what got past the censors.
