The fact that people could be so evil, its such a foreign concept to me I guess, like I knew there were serial killers and sadistic torturers out there, but just learning about the history of the soviet union, how they put so much effort into making things look fine, when they’re actually not. Its one thing to affect an individual’s life with an act, but to infuse that view on the entire world, doesn’t that narcissism and self-deception, even with good intentions, not shake your soul to the very core?

    Maybe I am a psycho but I had a lot of good laughs out of it. Especially where they build the canal that had to be rebuilt as soon as it was done. Russia is wild. Book does have a sad tone to it alot, but the sheer incompetence of socialists is often hilarious.
