USSR! Lenin! The Party! Komsomol! Come on?! Kobzon, Zykina, BAM, Virgin Lands…
… but somewhere there, in the real, true USSR! In the one sparkling with Czech crystal and advanced socialist realism, satellites are launched into the sky, communism is built throughout the world, dreams of turning the rivers of the north and apple trees in Mars come true.
And this is a parallel, wrong, not-real USSR—the one with barracks, communal apartments, drunkenness, and fatherlessness: "missing without a trace" and "ten years without the right to correspondence," misreporting and theft at work. A crooked mirror of the country of the victorious socialism.
The book includes profanity!
