Interested in reading up on western slave laborers in the Gulag? The sexual revolution in Russia? The life of the great dancer Rudolf Nureyev?
The Vladivostok News now has a list of books on these and other Russia-related topics.
The book list is an enlightened attempt by our newspaper management to spread knowledge about this misunderstood stretch of the globe. Besides, we get a cut of the loot if you buy a book by linking to Amazon.com from our list.
Here are some of the titles, both those submitted by Vladivostok News readers and gathered by staff. More sections will be added over the next week or so.
We have broken our books into four broad categories:
Siberia and the Far East
Russia and the Soviet Union
The Gulag and Stalinism
