Reviews
All in all, this is an excellent book, thoroughly researched and persuasively argued. Chernyshova's captivating and timely study of the 'progress and frustration' (p. 205) of the Brezhnev years will be of tremendous interest to anyone with a serious interest in the late Soviet period, especially social and economic historians and anthropologists. -Graham H. Roberts. Universite Paris Ouest Nanterre La Defense Chernyshova's account simultaneously advances the ongoing debate on the Brezhnev era and adroitly places the idiosyncrasies of Soviet consumerism within a transnational perspective, enriching our perspective on both. Because this brief review cannot do justice to the wealth of thought-provoking ideas and issues Chernyshova raises, I urge all those interested in the history of the Brezhnev era, fashion, as well as Soviet and European consumerism to read this book.
