    He's got a beautiful voice and I feel so calm, listening to him.

    Sounds like a terrific book. A wonderful writer.

    Julian Barnes wasn't very helpful when I contacted him via his publisher. I told him about the condition Retroactive Jealousy and asked what had informed his portrayal of this in his novel -'Before She Met Me'. I also suggested he could take a role in helping people with this condition who identified with the character. He really didn't want to know. A great opportunity for helping people was wasted.

    as an ex ussr person i would be very surprised if western politicians find anything that was good in socialist regime, the only good thing i can recall was my parents and my childhood, and those two had nothing to do with regime, it was good despite the regime :)

    It's an ordinary anti-communist chant which based on the Solomon Volkov's fraudulent book Testimony.
