Opis

Written with Frances Welch's famously waspish eye for detail, this is another fascinating, percipient and often quite hilariously funny book from the master of Russian history. The mass market release of the latest widely-praised book from Frances Welch. Frances's last book, Rasputin, was an Evening Standard no.1 London bestseller and Sunday Times "Must Read" in 2014.

Recenzje

"With her quick wit and light touch, Welch conducts a relentless inquiry into conscience, family loyalty and the nature of the past... an unsettling portrait of moustaches, murder, and lese-majeste.' The Spectator
