Witty and Insightful!
Much of the book focuses on the insider game in Washington, the non-functioning government bent on both sides twisting reality while continuing to rake in millions from big business. Meanwhile, Boeing, G.M., and Ford are headed towards becoming Chinese companies, and ...

The Exile: Sex, Drugs, and Libel in the New Russia

Mark Ames, Matt Taibbi

Grove Press, 2000

Outstanding Work
This book is a must read for anyone that desires understaning of russian societal mores. Mark Ames particularly does an absolutely wonderful job with his gloomy delivery explaining Moscow sex, drug and media scene throughout the 90s. I must warn you, this is not your ...

There's little I can offer that hasn't been said in other reviews here. But I want to add my voice to those championing Taibbi. Readers not paying attention might mistake his writing for sophomoric rant, but it's actually eloquent. Having read his book I read the ...
