P***y Riot

Both more and less than a band, P***y Riot is continually misunderstood by the Western media. This book sets the record straight.



After their scandalous performance of an anti-Putin protest song in Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Savior and the imprisonment of two of its members, the punk feminist art collective known as P***y Riot became an international phenomenon. But, what, exactly, is P***y Riot, and what are they trying to achieve? The award-winning author Eliot Borenstein explores the movement's explosive history and takes you beyond the hype.
