Natasha's Dance: A Cultural History of Russia by Orlando Figes

4.0

Natasha's Dance offers a fascinating insight into hundreds of years of Russian art and culture. I would have liked for the author to spend more time delving deeper into aspects of the culture and the art itself and a little less time on the lives of Russian artists, writers, and composers. While interesting, it started to feel more like a collection of small biographies than a study of culture. But it was a good read overall.
