Author: Igor Golomstock
Title: A Ransomed Dissident: A Life in Art Under the Soviets
Description: I.B.Tauris, 2018. Hardcover. Fine Condition/Fine. 9781788312950 A clean bright copy, slight curling to top front edge of jacket. Golomstock recounts in lively style his life in three separate communities: the Moscow art world of the 1960s, the human rights movement and the post-1970s emigre milieu of London, Paris and Munich. He is an observer with strong but discriminating opinions; seldom have the personalities who inhabited these worlds - and who in many cases hated each other - been so vividly portrayed. This is an essential study for those who wish to understand the cultural and political conflicts of the late Soviet Union and the Russian emigration.--Geoffrey Hosking, Emeritus Professor of Russian History, University College London 288 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Biography & Autobiography; ISBN/EAN: 9781788312950. Inventory No: dscf10130.
