reviewed Literary Russia: A Guide on November 24, 2017 Literary Russia
I enjoyed it quite a bit. I almost never opt for a non-fiction when I have a fiction book on hand, but I really enjoyed S. Hudgins tone and flow. It didn't hurt that the author and I are both passionate about food and ethnography, or that I was pretty curious about Siberia and the Russian Far East.
That said, I would like to formally ban S. Hudgins from the use of listed alliteration for the rest of her writing career. Also, this book could have been much better organized, with many of my questions only answered at the end, and quite a bit of information repeated unnecessarily. In fact, the middle of chapter 10 actually felt more like the beginning of the book. After 9 1/2 chapters revolving around the same ideas and topics, I felt that was a gross oversight by the editor.
Lastly, I really loved the pictures, but would have liked more of them, and to have them more logically placed (for example, next to the text describing it, not several pages later.)
