| Description: |
Of all of Soviet cultural myths, none was more resilient than the belief that the USSR had the world's greatest readers. This book explains how the "Russian reading myth" began in the 1920s and 30s, how it was supported, and how it was challenged in the post-Stalin era. |
| Synopsis: |
Of all of Soviet cultural myths, none was more resilient than the belief that the USSR had the world's greatest readers. This book explains how the "Russian reading myth" took hold in the 1920s and 1930s, how it was supported by a monopolistic and homogenizing system of book production and distribution, and how it was challenged in the post-Stalin era by the latent expansion and differentiation of the reading public, and by the economic and cultural changes of the 1990s. |
