Klappentext 0 Zusammenfassung A pioneering insight into the world of the early Soviet activist in the wake of the October Revolution, exploring how young radicals banded together in 'urban communes'; at first an experimental lifestyle choice for a handful of young socialists, but growing into a cultural phenomenon espoused by tens of thousands of youths by the end of the 1920s.
