I thought this book was really interesting in showing the changes that recently happend in Russia, and how it has affected the people there.
I did get a bit confused with all of the names of people, which were hard for me to keep straight, but by the end I pretty much understood what was going on. Definitely the portrait of Russia and the lives of Russians that this book gave was somewhat different from what I would have thought. Also, I didn't know anything about the traditional religious communities who live out in the outerlying areas of Russia, but I found them particularly interesting, and something I'd like to read more about.
