- This book offers a pioneering insight into the world of the early Soviet activist. Using previously unseen documents, gathered from hitherto untapped Russian repositories over the course of three dedicated years of research, this study pieces together the history of the urban communes—revolutionary residences formed by those determined to invent a new socialist lifestyle. This book challenges the traditional coercion-heavy narrative of Soviet history, presenting Soviet ideology as something that could both frame and fire the imagination.
