Summary |
"The dramatic history of Russia proves fertile ground for laughter in this volume of humorous verse by the author of Pets of the Great Dictators. Sabrina P. Ramet is a serious academic with a seriously funny side. She has made major contributions to European history with her scholarly work on the former Yugoslavia. But her most unique contribution may be the well-informed and wackily executed poems in this volume. No Russian is safe from Sabrina's hammer-and-sickle wit. Even the most fearsome and formidable -- Lenin, Stalin, Peter the Great, and many others -- are shown to be buffoons in this collection of satirical poems as dry as a straight shot of vodka."-- Provided by Freading. |
