Say what you will about the former USSR, but they always had their own way of doing things—and nowhere is that more evident than in this little book of bizarrely funny, nostalgic images gathered by Varia Bortsova, host of the popular social media platform @SovietVisuals. Marvel at the wonders of the Soviet space race, delight in the delicacies of Russian food and drink, and revel in the opportunities for work and play under a totalitarian regime. Bortsova's collection of photography, architecture, propaganda art, advertising, design, and culture from behind the Iron Culture is sure to fascinate, amuse, and maybe surprise you.
