El Fin del Homo Sovieticus - Svetlana Aleksievich - Bog

With the sole help of a tape recorder and a pen, Svetlana Aleksievich strives to keep alive the memory of the tragedy that was the USSR, to tell the micro-stories of a great utopia. Communism proposed the folly of transforming the old man, the old Adam, and he got it. In just seventy years, the laboratory of Marxism-Leninism created a singular type of man: Homo sovieticus, condemned to disappear with the implosion of the USSR.
