YES! Please rush me my first issue! If I like what I see, I will pay your subscription bill (just $36 for one year) and get five more colorful issues of Russian Life (for a total of six), plus a FREE copy of 2013 Russian Life Wall Calendar (a $20 value!). If, however, I decide I am not interested, I will simply mark your bill “cancel” and send it back to you and get no more issues and (sadly) no Wall Calendar. The free sample issue is,however, mine to keep in any case. I understand I will also be subscribed to the FREE Russian Life email newsletter, an exclusive insider's list with special offers and discounts, which I can unsubscribe to at any time with a single click.

This free calendar offer is ONLY good for subscribers in the United States while supplies last. Unfortunately, the high costs of international shipping and handling make sending calendars too expensive.

We need to verify that you are indeed a human visitor
and not a computer trying to fill our forms with spam.

Dina from Parallel Russia: By Ekaterina Vinokurova, Gazeta.ru; In my capacity as a journalist, I usually tell unhappy stories about people’s lives that are almost inevitably destroyed by the government. Happy endings and happy people, on the contrary, are usually discovered by chance. The story I am about to tell you was brought to me by just one such chance.

Spies Like Us: By Paul E. Richardson; The Americans, on FX, is a brilliant episodic drama that recreates the 1980s with only minimal anachronisms but plenty of tension, plot twists, double-dealing and moral relativism.
