a titan by igor gouzcnko was a surprisingly good book its been thrilling acton readers over since it armed at the library recently we ve heard several say they couldn t put it down j it 5 fiction but its reminiscent i of gouzenkos own stor its about i an idealist in russia uhose ideas are enmeshed in the regulations of communism often the figures in the book actually parallel top rus sian politicians we hear so little of russia that we don t know how the ordinary families like ourselves live gou zenko knows and his characters are thoroughly real hqffons page of fhe pof hornby school
