A raw and unique approach to showing what life is like in Russia. Through sketches and beautiful reporting, the author did a great job capturing the two parts of the people’s feelings in the areas: invisible and angry. It helped crush some stereotypes about Russia and the people.

Exceptional reportage, though it does assume a certain level of familiarity with recent Russian politics. Otherwise, very approachable and quick read.
