Red Plenty: ‘Bizarre and quite brilliant.’ Dominic Sandbrook, host of THE REST IS HISTORY
Spufford, Francis (author)
The Soviet Union was founded on a fairytale. It was built on 20th-century magic called 'the planned economy', which was going to gush forth an abundance of good things that the penny-pinching lands of capitalism could never match. This book is about that moment in history, and how it came and went away.
