{"product_id":"2940148208235","title":"Mayfair to Moscow Clare Sheridan's Diary (Expanded, Annotated)","description":"What a woman! Once again Clare Sheridan is at the center of world history and recording it all as though the world-changers are just other people she met along the way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis time, just prior to her trip to America (during which she had an affair with Charlie Chaplin) she's in Bolshevik Russia in 1920. As she \"hunts heads\" to sculpt, she spends time with Lenin and Trotsky, both of whom she sculpted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs she says, she's interested in their psychology, not their politics. This somewhat naive approach brings her criticism and a file with MI-5 but also brings us an immediate, fascinating look at some of the most important characters of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOf her beloved cousin, Winston Churchill, with whom she differed greatly in politics, \"Winston is the only man I know in England who is made of the stuff that Bolsheviks are made of. He has fight, force, and fanaticism.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlong the way, she meets with friends, the Bernard Shaws, John Reed, and H.G. Wells. Clare Sheridan never disappoints. Her writing is breezy and fun when it's not contemplative and insightful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBe sure to LOOK INSIDE or download a sample.","brand":"BIG BYTE BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47072582959344,"sku":"2940148208235","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148208235_p0.jpg?v=1763698936","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148208235","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
