Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. ### Among the Russians by Colin Thubron 1985 -- A Journey Through the Enigmatic Soviet Union ### ## THIS BOOk: Classified: VERY GOOD is the 1985 Edition. The book was published in 1983 by Heinemann Ltd., then in Penguin in 1985. The map of his journey is intact. The free endpaper is missing, strangely. The book has a few shelf and handling marks, and the cover has a few crease marks at the top with some slight discolouring of page edges owing to the quality of the paper stock; the spine is tight #. READ ON: We provide images of all our books and maps so you know what you buy. READ ON for more information and details. ## ## In the early 1980s, as the Iron Curtain still hung heavily across the vast expanse of the Soviet Union, British travel writer Colin Thubron embarked on an extraordinary odyssey. His book, "Among the Russians," chronicles a 10,000-mile road trip that took him from the Baltic to the Caucasus, traversing half of Russia's cities and countryside. Thubron's journey provides a fresh perspective on the last tumultuous years of the Soviet Union, capturing its essence through a blend of keen observation, poetic prose, and unwavering curiosity. ## The Journey UnfoldsL Thubron's journey begins in St. Petersburg (then Leningrad), a city steeped in history and grandeur. From there, he ventures southward, crossing the vast plains, dense forests, and remote villages. His route takes him through the heart of the Soviet Union, where he encounters a tapestry of cultures, landscapes, and people.## ## Geography and History: Thubron's vivid descriptions bring the Russian landscape to life. He walks down western Russia's country roads, rests in its villages, and explores some of the most engaging cities in the world. His account is not just a travelogue; it's a historical document that captures the spirit of a nation on the brink of change.## ## People and Culture: Thubron's encounters with the Russian people are both intimate and revealing. He shares conversations with farmers, artists, and intellectuals. He witnesses their struggles, dreams, and resilience. Through their eyes, he glimpses the complexities of Russian identity?a blend of stoicism, passion, and longing.## ## Architecture and Iconography: Thubron's appreciation for architecture and iconography shines through. He marvels at the onion domes of Orthodox churches, the imposing facades of Soviet-era buildings, and the intricate details of centuries-old monuments. His prose weaves together the physical and spiritual aspects of Russia's heritage.## ## The Shape and Texture of Enigma: "Among the Russians" is more than a travelogue; it explores enigma. Thubron's writing captures the soul of a nation?a place most of us will never get to know firsthand. As he grapples with the complexities of the Soviet Union, he invites readers to join him on this remarkable journey.## ## Legacy and Impact: Colin Thubron's work has left an indelible mark on travel literature. His poetic sensibility and deep understanding of history and culture make "Among the Russians" a timeless read. .## ## Penguin Books: A Tale of Affordable Literature: Origins: In the bustling literary landscape of 1930s Britain, a visionary named Allen Lane stepped forward. His dream? To make quality books accessible to all?books that could be "bought as easily and casually as a packet of cigarettes." Thus, in 1935, Penguin Books was born. Lane's mission was clear: democratise reading.## ## The Penguin Revolution: With its iconic orange and white covers, Penguin revolutionised publishing. Lane's brainchild offered a treasure trove of literature spanning genres and eras. From classic novels to thought-provoking non-fiction, Penguin catered to diverse tastes. And it did so at a price that didn't break the bank.## ## INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note. FREE SHIPPING IS UK ONLY. Please get in touch with me for a shipping quotation. ##.
