publications, circulation, and reception of banned books from the Soviet Union
and Eastern Europe abroad during the Cold War. Please join us for this
exciting journey!

Tamizdat: Contraband Literature from the USSR and Eastern Europe through
Hunter College, sign up for Russian language courses offered by our hosts in
Tallinn, and listen to a variety of lecture courses by some of the most
