"We are the rebels asking for the storm, and believing that truth is only to be found in an endless search ... Two years of prison for Pussy Riot is our tribute to a destiny that gave us sharp ears, allowing us to sound the note A when everyone else is used to hearing G flat." In an extraordinary exchange of letters, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, imprisoned for taking part in Pussy Riot's anti-Putin performance, and Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Zizek discuss artistic subversion, political activism, and the future of democracy via the ideas of Hegel, Deleuze, Nietzsche, and even Laurie Anderson. Two radicals, one in a Russian forced labor camp, the other writing to her from far outside its walls, show passionately - across linguistic and generational divides - that "there is still a common cause worth fighting for." Touching, erudite, and worldly, their correspondence unfolds with poetic urgency. In association with Philosophie Magazine.

STÖD PUSSY RIOT! KÖP SLUTPLÄDERING för 50 KRONOR: intäkterna går oavkortat till Nadezjda Tolokonnikova i Pussy Riot. Pussy Riot är ett ryskt feministiskt konstnärskollektiv i vilket medlemmarna varit anonyma. Deras punkaktioner har haft som syfte att ge röst åt den alltmer hotade press- och yttrandefriheten i Ryssland. Den 17 augusti dömdes tre av medlemmarna till två års fängelse för huliganism för sitt trettio sekunder långa uppträdande i Frälsarkatedralen i Moskva. I en rysk domstol har man som åtalad rätten att tala ostört innan domen faller. En av medlemmarna, den 22-åriga Nadezjda Tolokonnikova, tog då tillfället i akt och höll en slutplädering som har alla m...

Riot Days

In 2012 Maria Alyokhina and other members of Pussy Riot performed a provocative 'Punk Prayer', taking on the Orthodox church and its support for Vladimir Putin's authoritarian regime. They were charged with 'organized hooliganism'. That trial and Alyokhina's subsequent imprisonment became an international cause. For Alyokhina, her two-year sentence launched a struggle against the Russian prison system and an iron-willed refusal to be deprived of her humanity. This book gives voice to Alyokhina's insistence on the right to say no, whether to a prison guard or to the president.

Pussy Riot!

Letters from prison, songs, poems, and courtroom statements, plus tributes to the Russian punk band that shook the world. On February 21, 2012, five members of a Russian feminist punk collective Pussy Riot staged a performance in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow. Dressed in brightly colored tights and balaclavas, they performed their “Punk Prayer” asking the Virgin Mary to drive out Russian president Vladimir Putin from the church. After just forty seconds, they were chased out by security. Once a retooled video of the events circulated on YouTube (edited to seem much longer than the actual performance), the state was riled into action. Three members of the collective, Maria ...
