Pussy Riot
Speaking Punk to Power
(Author) Professor Eliot BorensteinBoth more and less than a band, Pussy Riot is continually misunderstood by the Western media. This book sets the record straight.

But, what, exactly, is Pussy Riot, and what are they trying to achieve? The award-winning author Eliot Borenstein explores the movement's explosive history and takes you beyond the hype.
