The Polish journalist whose The Soccer War and The Emperor are counted as classics of contemporary reportage now bears witness in Imperium to the disintegration of the Soviet Union. This magisterial book combines childhood memory with unblinking journalism, a radar for the truth with a keen appreciation of the absurd.

Imperium begins with Ryszard Kapuscinski's account of the Soviet occupation of his town in eastern Poland in 1939. It culminates fifty years later, with a forty-thousand-mile journey that takes him from the haunted corridors of the Kremlin to the abandoned gulag of Kolyma, from a miners' strike in the arctic circle to a panic-stricken bus ride through the war-torn Caucasus.

Out of passivity and paranoia, ethnic hatred and religious fanaticism that have riven two generations of Eastern Europeans, Kapuscinski has composed a symphony for a collapsing empire--a work that translates history into the hopes and sufferings of the human beings condemned to live it.

Not for tough chewers
Color: Blue
Cute toy, good concept but definitely not for super chewer. Got it at such a price that I let him destroy it because he was having so much fun. You only have one birthday a year after all.

fun toy
Color: Orange
Very cute toy .My dog loves it. He is hard on toys and loves playing pully. So far it is holding up really well. It is a good size for medium to large dogs. I think if you have a small breed it may be to large. The color is a vivid orange and white. I really think your dog will love it.

Will buy again
Color: Orange, Color: Orange
This was one of the first toys I got my dog and he LOVED IT. I sadly had to throw it away because he peed on it but this is something I will definitely repurchase. Perfect for tug of war and playing fetch. Definitely not indestructible as he did rip it a little but it took him a LONG time to do that
