Produktbeschreibung

The subjects of these essays range from the Moscow press to frontline correspondents, from entertainment brigades to amateur songs by fighting men and women, from symphonic compositions to revivals of literary classics, and from Moscow stages to folk ensembles on the battlefield-the cultural outpourings in the hearts and souls of ordinary Russians at war.
