Sedition cover

This book explores Soviet prosecution records to tell the hidden story of ordinary citizens who were arrested for expressing discontent during the Khrushchev and Brezhnev years.

"Sedition enriches and deepens our view of post-Stalinist Soviet society, in part by defying expectations. . . . Sedition is as fascinating as it is worthwhile."—James H. Krukones, The Russian Review -- James H. Krukones * The Russian Review *
