Saw this at Goodwill the other day and wanted it, but I ran out of money. If I see it next time I go, I'll grab it up, it sounds really interesting :)
If you liked "the Kitchen Boy', you'll LOVE Ruslan!! Very informative of Tsarist Russian customs, food, and society. Hilariously funny, beautifully written and a real page turner!
