Praise for WORDS WILL BREAK CEMENT: THE PASSION OF PUSSY RIOT "Urgent … damning … Much here will be new to the American reader. All of it is infuriating." Alexander Nazaryan, The New York Times "The fullest account so far of the Pussy Riot story… A moving object lesson in the power of art - perhaps especially messy and exuberant art - to rise above repression and have the last, cement-breaking word." Sara Marcus , Los Angeles Times "Valuable for its insights into the modern cultural history of Russia, with all its idealistic muddles, dead-ends and false starts … ideal for those curious about the country behind the Games." The Economist "Pussy Riot is a global cause célèbre, and now Gessen-prickly, frank, precise, and sharply witty-provides the first in-depth look at this story-in-progress" Booklist (starred review) "Based on interviews with Pussy Riot members (including those arrested and others in the group), their families, friends, and attorneys, Gessen puts their protest and arrests in the context of post-Soviet, Putin-era Russia's culture and society… Recommended to readers in feminist studies, those following ÂPutin's Russia, and all who study protest art." Library Journal Praise for THE MAN WITHOUT A FACE: THE UNLIKELY RISE OF VLADIMIR PUTIN "Gessen has shown remarkable courage… [An] unflinching indictment of the most powerful man in Russia." The Wall Street Journal "[Gessen] shines a piercing light into every dark corner of Putin's story… Fascinating, hard-hitting reading." Foreign Affairs "Illuminating… It is with [the] explosive revelations that Gessen truly excels… An electrifying read from what can only be described as an incredibly brave writer." Columbia Journalism Review "Part psychological profile, part conspiracy study. As a Moscow native who has written perceptively for both Russian and Western publications, Gessen knows the cultures and pathologies of Russia… [and has] a delicious command of the English language… A fiercely independent journalist… Gessen's armchair psychoanalysis of Putin is speculative. But it is a clever and sometimes convincing speculation, based on a close reading of Putin's own inadvertently revealing accounts of his life, and on interviews with people who knew Putin before he mattered." The New York Times Book Review "Absorbing." The New Yorker "Powerful and gracefully written." The San Francisco Chronicle, Praise for WORDS WILL BREAK CEMENT: THE PASSION OF PUSSY RIOT "Urgent … damning … Much here will be new to the American reader. All of it is infuriating."

Synopsis
From National Book Award winner Masha Gessen, the heroic story of Pussy Riot, who resurrected the power of truth in a society built on lies. On February 21, 2012, five young women entered the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow. In neon-colored dresses, tights, and balaclavas, they performed a "punk prayer" beseeching the "Mother of God" to "get rid of Putin." They were quickly shut down by security, and in the weeks and months that followed, three of the women were arrested and tried, and two were sentenced to a remote prison colony. But the incident captured international headlines, and footage of it went viral. People across the globe recognized not only a fierce act of political confrontation but also an inspired work of art that, in a time and place saturated with lies, found a new way to speak the truth. Masha Gessen's riveting account tells how such a phenomenon came about. Drawing on her exclusive, extensive access to the members of Pussy Riot and their families and associates, she reconstructs the fascinating personal journeys that transformed a group of young women into artists with a shared vision, gave them the courage and imagination to express it unforgettably, and endowed them with the strength to endure the devastating loneliness and isolation that have been the price of their triumph.

As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good.
