DESCRIPTION:
Pay attention! Charlie G. Dodson Baranskaya's work is an excellent source of insight for the daily lives of ordinary people in the former Soviet Union. Unfortunately for me, I ordered this edition without realizing it is the original RUSSIAN, not an English translation.Details, details!
Natal'ya Baranskaya achieved instant fame with the controversial publication in 1969 of A Week Like Any Other.The story, remarkable for its lack of tendentiousness, presents auniquely honest picture of the stressful and unequal lot of sovietwomen, in the form of a diary of a typical week in the life of OlgaVoronkova, a young Moscow scientist and mother.
