Described by one literary critic as "Jack Kerouac narrating the adventures of Thomas Pynchon's character, Tyrone Slothrop, only in Russia," Sovok takes you on a front-row view of the transition from Soviet Union to liberated Russia, and her return back to today's tyranny. McKinney describes his interactions for over 20 years with dissidents, billionaires, mob bosses, presidents, bureaucrats, and political leaders, while he constantly breaks laws and bends rules, as do most of the people he works with.
If this were a movie plot, it would be a blend of Grand Budapest Hotel, Wolf of Wall Street, Snatch, Eastern Promises, and Everything is Illuminated. By declaring himself a liar, the author prods the listener to question everyone and everything. Through personal stories, one of Sovok's central themes is that a network of loyal and moral friends can circumvent the strictest government regulations and defeat criminal syndicates. Sovok fits into dozens of book categories. The one category it is not is ordinary.
