Russia is depressing. I read “Red Square” and “Polar Star.” Deeply, seriously gloomy. Stuart Kamisky’s series about Porfiry Rostnikov is somewhat more sprightly.

Yep. Polar Star I think was the most depressing, though it was “good” in a wierd way. I liked it better than Gorky Park. It took him ten years to write GP. That’s an awful big writer’s block!!
