Recent changes to Russia's internal borders prompted us to do the first complete reworking of this map since its original publication in 1996. It makes it quite possibly the only accurate map of Russia today!
Chtenia is the Russian word for “readings.” And it is the title of a new journal to supplement Russian Life magazine. If you love Russian Life, you are going to love Chtenia, because it picks up where Russian Life leaves off, offering more quality fiction, non-fiction and photography in a convenient and portable paperback book format.
The second issue of Chtenia features fine fiction and poetry by Tolstoy, Mandelstam, Gelasimov, Nagibin and others, plus non-fiction, photography and an interview with the bard Yuli Kim. The theme is "Three Russian Springs."
Through a special arrangement with the publisher, we are happy to offer to our customers this new book byRussian Life columnist Laura Williams (Notes from a Russian Village).
