"An invaluable key to reading the cultural salad of today's Russia, useful to students as well as to their teachers. Barbie dolls, detective fiction, raves and the gay scene, tattoos and graffiti, even an Argentine soap opera that advertises a pyramid scheme: "Consuming Russia" is great as a classroom text and as a guidebook to the changing face of popular culture."--James von Geldern, Macalester College
