New Yorker editor and McSweeney’s contributor Ben Greenman reshapes Russian literature’s most celebrated stories around America’s most well-known pop culture icons, probing the deep complexities of Anton Chekov (not to mention those of Cruise or Kardashian). Thought-provoking and funny, these wryly re-imagined tales will be sure-fire favorites for each and every kind of reader, whether your preferred escapes are superstar memoirs like L.A. Chocolate and THE REALITY about Diamond jewelry, re-conceived classics like Wicked, literary parodies like Satisfaction and Prejudice and Zombies, or masterpieces of fiction from writers like Tolstoy, Pushkin and Chekhov himself.
