Frédéric Chaubin: CCCP. Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed. 45th Ed. (45th Edition) (Multilingual Edition) Review: Beautiful and Informative Book! - As with all Taschen books, the quality is awesome! The color photos throughout the book are augmented with multi-language text explaining Soviet-era architecture. My only complaint is that several of the photos are divided across both pages, obscuring a small space in the fold. If I wanted to scan or photograph one of these images to use as my desktop background, it would be marred by the crease. The book has hundreds of cool photos and it's easy to get lost in it for hours! Review: Unseen photos from the former USSR - Interesting photos of USSR architecture unknown in the west. But printed in a small format, a larger size would have been more visually appealing. Contains limited captions or explanation.

Se lo regalamos a un amigo que está muy metido en arquitectura y le gustó mucho. Ya sabíamos que el tema le interesaba, así que acertamos. Las fotos están bien, la edición cuidada y el libro llegó en buen estado. Si buscas algo distinto para alguien que le guste este tipo de arquitectura, es una buena opción.

The original (X) version is better, but this is still a wonderful book about a horrible era which still allowed architects to have visions: the future was going to be glorious. Now half of the buildings have been abandoned, but are still standing.
