A Mountain of Crumbs by Elena Gorokhova

3.0

Interesting memoir about growing up in the Soviet Union (Leningrad/St Petersburg) in the 1960s and 70s at the height of fierce communism. She went really in depth on some not-so-interesting aspects of her life, lots of minutiae, but at times it was a fascinating glimpse at everyday life at that time.
