Winner of the Pulitzer PrizeOne of the Best Books of the Year: The New York Times From the editor of The New Yorker: a riveting account of the collapse of the Soviet Union; which has become the standard book on the subject. Lenin’s Tomb combines the global vision of the best historical scholarship with the immediacy of eyewitness journalism. Remnick takes us through the tumultuous 75-year period of Communist rule leading up to the collapse and gives us the voices of those who lived through it; from democratic activists to Party members; from anti-Semites to Holocaust survivors; from Gorbachev to Yeltsin to Sakharov. An extraordinary history of an empire undone; Lenin’s Tomb stands as essential reading for our times.

Hardcover Includes Parts I and IIBy Jay BeeBrowsing through the reviews and comments about Maus; I saw that there was some question as to whether the hardcover edition comprised Parts I and II. This is understandable because the product is listed in as "The Complete Maus: A Survivor's Tale (No 1);" which seems contradictory.When I was considering purchasing it; I looked at the number of pages that were listed for the edition and guessed that it included both parts of the story. So I bought it; it arrived fine; and I am now writing to confirm that yes; this edition includes I and II. should look into this and remove the "(No 1)" from the listing's title.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
