It happen in those days when Soviet Union was still alive and I was a child. Publicatons from the Union would fill our streets, Communist Manifesto flew in the air like, Christian missionary tracts, You know I was/am a Christian and I used to distribute those tracts in our neighbourhood

hi... i really like this post of yours...and you when i read it the first thing that came to my mind was that...i think the smell that you describe or talk about is the essence of that story,i don't think that even if you actually read those books now will make a diff...but that smell, the thought your amma put into it... that will remain...

bye for now

great post man...I think that nostalgia for the former Soviet Union is really pointed and relevant right now. And giving it to us through the lense of Indian culture gives it that much more depth.
