WrenchBeing in this life meant there were always risks associated with it. This wasn't the first time I was attacked, but I didn't know if I was going to make it through. But, somehow, I did. I made it through, but it didn't mean I made it out in one piece. I was lucky according to some, but the attack broke my body down more than I could ever imagine. I needed to heal, to give my body time to recover, and some of that recovery meant I was going to see a physiotherapist.I didn't go into recovery looking for any sort of love. Sure, my brothers were finding their happy-ever-afters left and right, but not me. I was always the odd man out. It got to me in a way, and mentally I was fucked while I was at the facility.Then, I met April. One look at her and I craved her like nothing else. Then she spoke, and I quickly discovered she was a drill sergeant. Over time, I got to know April personally and I grew attached. I was starting to think she might be the thing I've been missing in my life, and I think I was right.AprilIn all of my years of being a therapist, I'd never met someone as stubborn and bull-headed as the man called Wrench. At first, I was a bit afraid of him, but I came to find out he wasn't scary in the least bit. He was a man who hated his circumstances. The same circumstances that led him to being in the facility as my patient.After a while, I figured out how to approach him, and we created a good working relationship with one another. Then, he somehow pulled at my heart strings. He knocked down every wall I'd ever built and before I knew it I was questioning everything. I yearned for Wrench in a way I'd never craved another and while I was afraid of my vulnerability, he showed me I could count on him.

The project to create a 'New Man' and 'New Woman' initiated in the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc constituted one of the most extensive efforts to remake human psychophysiology in modern history. Playing on the different meanings of the word 'technology' - as practice, knowledge and artefact - this edited volume brings together scholarship from across a range of fields to shed light on the ways in which socialist regimes in the Soviet bloc and Eastern Europe sought to transform and revolutionise human capacities. From external, state-driven techniques of social control and bodily management, through institutional practices of transformation, to strategies of self-fashioning, Technologies of Mind and Body in the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc probes how individuals and collectives engaged with - or resisted - the transformative imperatives of the Soviet experiment. The volume's broad scope covers topics including the theory and practice of revolutionary embodiment; the practice of expert knowledge and disciplinary power in psychotherapy and criminology; the representation and transformation of ideal bodies through mass media and culture; and the place of disabled bodies in the context of socialist transformational experiments. The book brings the history of human 're-making' and the history of Soviet and Eastern Bloc socialism into conversation in a way that will have broad and lasting resonance.

A vivid portrait of Russia at the most turbulent period of modern history, and of one of the most violent and repressive regimes in history.
