He had never attended soviet school and spent his childhood reading Xenophon in the fabulous seclusion of a summer enclave near Moscow, were Stalin's henchmen like Andrei Gromyko had their villas. Escape to freedom was an obsessive dream, as it had been his father's and grandfather's. What would he find in New York, New Haven and London, when this dream came true? ***He arrives in the United states in 1972. he attends Yale University, later becoming editor and publisher of The Yale Literary Magazine, america's oldest review, established in 1821. Under his direction, the independent magazine develops into a focus of national media controversy and is eventually shit down by the University administration. Against the contrasting background of democracy's myths and fictions, the political culture of George Bush's America reveals its ghoulish secret, deriving the young writer to the brink of madness. ***If ideas are born, live and have a history, then The Gingerbread Race is an autobiography of ideas. Dissecting illusions with reality, the book is a lyrical post-mortem of the social organisms once known as the East and the West. it is also a ruthless glimpse of their mutual interpenetration, and gradual transformation into a social hybrid without precedent. The Gingerbread Race is a prophecy whose author, like George Orwell in Nineteen Eighty-Four and more recently Allan Bloom in The Closing of the American Mind, writes in the hope of being prove wrong.''

"Andrei Navrozov has described himself as a political refugee from Russia, a cultural refugee from America, and a gastronomic refugee from Britain. Yet the theme of his book is altogether less flippant: where in the homogenizing and modernizing Europe would the hardened individualist find a last refuge? The answer to that question takes the reader on an uncompromising, occasionally eccentric but deeply personal and always entertaining travelogue with the author on his first day in Rome to his last night at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, and through a number of Italian cities, with sidelong glances at 70s Moscow, 80s New York, and 90s London. All of which leads him to "home" and the end of his flight from social progress: Palermo. Italy." (googlebooks). 29cms x 23.5cms. Pp.187, many black & white photographs by Gusov throughout. Grey marl cloth, printed grey tissue dustwrapper has a couple of minor white spots. VG/VG.
