Garden of Broken Statues: Exploring Censorship in Russia

Captivated at a young age by Russia, Marianna Tax Choldin immersed herself as a student at the University of Chicago in that country’s language and culture. In her book she describes the tension between her strong commitment to freedom of expression and her growing understanding of Russian and Soviet censorship. Fluent in Russian, she travels widely in post-Soviet Russia, speaking with hundreds of Russians about their own censorship history. She writes of the close friendships she formed in Russia, and reflects on her Jewish roots in the country her family had left behind 100 years earlier.Additional ISBNs9781618115447, 9781644691939Garden of Broken Statues: Exploring Censorship in Russia is written by Marianna Tax Choldin and published by Academic Studies Press.
