Very Good condition 1st Edition/1st Printing hardcover in Fine condition dust jacket *SIGNED* by the author, well-known Russian journalist Masha Gessen, on the title page without inscription, at a signing event in Los Angeles. In recent years, Gessen has published a number of very fine books about Vladimir Putin (The Man Without a Face) and the punk rock protest group, Pussy Riot (Words Will Break Cement) among other topics. "I loved this saga of two fascinating Russian-Jewish women making ends meet, making love, making homes, making agonizing compromises in the most terrible times of the twentieth century--and much is in the telling: witty, colourful, tragic, seething with life and character, it is a little classic of storytelling." -- Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of Stalin: The Court of the Red Czar. This copy has a couple of minor flaws: two upper corners that are lightly bumped and some white speckles on the right edges of the front and back covers. All else is in Fine condition inside and out. The dust jacket has been placed in a clear mylar protective sleeve--probably when the book was purchased--and is in flawless As-New condition. We will pack the book in bubble-wrap and will ship it in a sturdy box to ensure safe delivery. Seller Inventory # ABH162
