"Engineers of the Soul draws the reader into the wild euphoria of the Russian Revolution, as art and reality were bent to radically new purposes. Writers of renown, described by Stalin as 'engineers of the soul', were encouraged to sing the praises of construction. But the initial enthusiasm of Soviet writers faltered as these colossal structures led to slavery and destruction, and they were obliged to labour on in the service of a deluded totalitarian society." -- BOOK JACKET.
