The People’s Act of Love – James Meek

Perhaps you need to have read more classic Russian novels than I have (sum total: 0) to appreciate James Meek’s international bestselling, Man Booker Prize longlisted novel. I just found it a bit of a slog, in spite of the Czechs-in-Siberia, cannibalism and castration, and all the glowing reviews by writers I enjoy.
