In the first comprehensive picture of Soviet literary censorship, Herman Ermolaev highlights the aims of censorship and its evolution during shifts in Communist Party policy. He draws on a great variety of primary and secondary sources, including over 200 literary works; the Soviet government's decrees on censorship and publishing; books and articles on censorship; political and historical writings; and personal correspondences with writers, editors, and a former high-ranking Glavlit official.
Editorial : This book is a pathbreaking attempt to trace the development and workings of Soviet literary censorship from 1917-1991. The style is witty and pungent, and the scholarship, solid and impressive. (John B. Dunlop, Stanford University)
Herman Ermolaev's new book is an excellent contribution to this Soviet censorship literature and will be of interest to scholars, students, and general readers. (Slavic Review)
A revealing and detailed historical overview (CHOICE)
A systematic history of Soviet Russian literature is still waiting to be written. However, when it does appear, Herman Emolaev's study of Soviet (Russian) censorship will be a key companion to it. He has produced a detailed overview of this complex phenomenon, added to it a range of important examples, and documented it all very capably. The result is a readable and usable guide to a very nasty business. (Allan Reid The International Fiction Review)
I did not find 'Mutley Goes Skiing' entertaining. Silas and Jeremy brought out my inner sensual woman too, and had me rooting for them as they courted and wooed Sarah. Even though I was blown away by the history and by what Elder Baali can do, I was very disappointed that the majority of the book was so focused on the Elders of Clan Baali.
To summarize:
Baali History- 5 Stars
Baali Discipline listings- 3 Stars (Nothing below level 5 on Daimoinon?!?!? Come on!)
Over all- 4 Stars. Nothing wrong with being a pacifist.
1927 - Jailed and fined three times for practicing medicine without a license. In a cross between Star Wars and Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, I was spellbound for the entire time I was reading this. If you're looking for an excellent, overall travel book for Disney, this is the one to get!. It's easy to learn fractions after reading this book. I'm not going to claim that the book is perfect or earth-shattering or anything
