Sinopsis

Russian Optimism: Dark Nursery Rhymes To Cheer You Right Up is an illustrated coffee table book containing thirty of Russia's most horrifically hysterical nursery rhymes translated for an English speaking audience. Each rhyme is 2-4 lines, with an innocent title and a horrible ending. Each rhyme is accompanied by a brightly colored yet twisted illustration of the scenario described to add humor. Each two-page layout has the illustration on one side, and the title of the rhyme, the English text, the Russian text and the Russian transliteration (using English letters) on the other. For example, The Woods: "A little boy found a machine gun. Nothing lives in the woods anymore." The rhymes are grouped in seven ironically titled chapters: Moral Messages, Parenting Pointers, Classic Cooking, Aquatic Adventures, Close Calls, Cheery Children and Explosive Endings.

Críticas

"'Russian Optimism', so simple, yet so wise, and a great gift for your friends, but probably not your mom." -The Interrobang "So Disturbing You Can't Help But Laugh" -Fan Girl Nation "If you enjoyed Adam Mansbach's Go the F**k to Sleep, you just may be amused by some Russian nursery rhymes guaranteed to make you laugh. Or feel suicidal." -The Political Carnival "Dark and morbid, but also hilarious" -Gear Diary "A rather interesting book... some of the rhymes were pretty good and others were downright disturbing." -Storeybook Reviews "Reminded me of how happy I was to not be stuck on a cattle car headed to a concentration camp." -Rise Up and Write
