Strange as it may seem, the gray, oppressive USSR was founded on a fairy tale. It was built on the 20th-century magic called "the planned economy," which was going to gush forth an abundance of good things that the lands of capitalism could never match. And just for a little while, in the heady years of the late 1950s, the magic seemed to be working. Red Plenty is about that moment in history, and how it came, and how it went away. Red Plenty is history, it's fiction, it's as ambitious as Sputnik, and as uncompromising as an Aeroflot flight attendant.

can't stand listening to it
Revisado: 01-05-20
The book seems decent so far but I can't stand the narrator. I think he's American but his reading voice almost sounds fake British mixed with New England snob, and the Russian accents he does are awful. Its basically a series of short stories so you need an enjoyable narrator to propel you through, and this doesn't have it.
