I've read a lot about Soviet and Russian history. Some of it is dry and challenging. This book is not. It has led to a pile of books appearing on my desk as I have a strong urge to follow up on some of source material.
It's the first book I've read that juxtaposes the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact with what was happening concurrently in the UK and USA; that added a lot of context for me that I hadn't thought about before.
I was born in 1971 in the UK, so I was aware of some of what was going on geopolitically and politically—thanks, largely, to Spitting Image—but I was much more interested in BMX and booze.
I would really have liked for the story to have gone further forward, through Yeltsin's presidency and into Putin's era. Is the white pill still a possibility? I hope Malice is researching for the sequel!
