Imagine Frankenstein but it’s about communism this time.

I’m sure this book hits harder if you’re more familiar with the Russian Revolution than I am. As it stands, with my passing interest, I did really enjoy this. It’s an inherently funny concept, being forced to live with this weird dog man you created and worse how he’s all about the proletariat. Good stuff.
