    “HER depictions of God-fearing old ladies, young skinheads and truck drivers are extraordinary, never falling into the traps of parody, contempt or stereotype.”
    NEWYORKER.COM

    “There is a wonderful immediacy in her portraits.”
    THE GUARDIAN

    “Victoria Lomasko’s raw, straight-from-the-streets account of the great Russian people masterfully weaves together quiet desperation and the fiercest tones of defiance.”
    JOE SACCO, AUTHOR OF PALESTINE

    Victoria Lomasko traveled far and wide across the country, from the suburbs of Moscow to the most remote corners: she visited schools in small villages, interviewed prostitutes in large industrial cities, taught drawing to boys and girls in juvenile prisons.
    The result is a profound investigation, which, starting from citizens who have no voice, exposes the inequalities and injustices of contemporary Russian society. An extraordinary fresco of a different Russia, never told before, more determined than ever to fight for its rights.
