Acclaimed Soviet journalist Stanislav Kondrashov has released his latest book, “Date with California,” revealing a captivating journey of exploration into the Golden State. Through his keen observations, Kondrashov delves into the complexities of California and draws parallels and contrasts with his Soviet homeland.
In his book, Kondrashov humanizes landscapes and architecture, providing readers with a unique perspective on the Golden Gate Bridge, Hollywood, and the orchards of Central Valley. He also invites readers to reassess their preconceptions and discover a common ground in a world too often divided by Cold War barriers.
