Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Traverse a wonderous and often harrowing history in Verses of the Soviet Rail. Take a journey through Mayakovskaya Metro Station and feel the fear of the citizens as they cower in its vestibule while Moscow is bombed. Stroll along the platform of Dostoevskaya station and contemplate the renowned literature of Fyodor Dostoevsky, or travel across the eleven time zones of the Former Soviet Union on the Trans-Siberian Railway with a recovering alcoholic. Verses of the Soviet Rail takes you on an incredible journey, leaving you to marvel not only at the beauty of these underground metro-museums but also at the symbolism behind the socialist-realist architecture.
