"A major contribution to the field of Slavic studies. A work such as this gives scholars a place from which we can begin to rewrite and reconstruct women's role in Russian politics and culture in prerevolutionary times. This is a prodigious work of scholarship."-- Adele Barker, editor of "Consuming Russia: Popular Culture, Sex, and Society since Gorbachev"
