From the ruins of communism, this book emerges to provoke our interest in the aesthetic goals pursued with such catastrophic consequences by its founders. Interpreting totalitarian art and literature in the context of cultural history, it includes an essay that likens totalitarian aims to the modernists' goal of producing world transformative art.
