"Editor-in-Chief. Back to the USSR" is a novel by Anton Emelyanov and Sergey Savinov, the third book in the cycle “Editor-in-Chief,” genre time-reincarnation (time traveler) and alternative history.
A continuation of the adventures of a journalist from the 21st century in the body of an editor from the 80s. Russian journalist Zhenya Krotov, caught in a collapse in 2024, finds himself in the body of the editor-in-chief of a Soviet district newspaper—and now he has to raise provincial journalism to an all-Union level. At first he just wanted to prepare for the 90s, but how can you sit idle when there’s so much around that can be fixed? Yes, he doesn’t know how to solve the problem of drunkenness, he won’t be able to cure radiation sickness—but… He’s a journalist: he knows how not to give up and how to raise topics that truly matter. He knows how to make sure they listen to him. Will this help the people around him? Yes, though his life will definitely not be as calm as before. Will it change the course of history? Unlikely—what can one person do against the accumulated inertia of a whole country’s movement? Although… who knows.
