“USSR™” — an unusual book for today.
This is the story of how, in the very deepest corner of Russia, a free economic zone emerged—where technologies of the future are cultivated for the whole country. It’s a very expensive mix of Akademgorodok with Magnitka, the DniproHES, and Silicon Valley—a completely real “national project” called “USSR.”
You’ll say: is this fantasy? No!
This is a novel about those who believed in a dream and built a happy future already today. About young and smart people who are interested in living.
But power fears those who are free and confident in themselves. The project decided to shut down.
And then it turned out that happiness built with your own hands isn’t so easy to take away.
That even a powerful corporation carrying out orders from the Kremlin can break with obedience.
And that the builders of “USSR” are ready to fight for it.
