Antoni Słonimski, known for his sharp tongue and independent thinking, was not afraid to express his opinions on the reality surrounding him. His trip to the USSR was an opportunity to confront his ideas with the realities of life in a state ruled by communists. This book is a record of these confrontations, full of surprising insights and unexpected conclusions.
In his travelogue, Słonimski did not avoid difficult topics such as poverty, propaganda and lack of freedom of speech. His critical attitude towards the Soviet regime meant that after the publication of the book he was blacklisted by Soviet officials. As he himself wrote: Since the book My Journey to Russia, I have been on the blacklist of Soviet officials. From time to time they invite all the writers and feed them caviar, and I have to sit at home as punishment.
