"The crafting, production, and canonization of Stalin's image was no simple endeavor. It involved technologies that gave Stalin's cult a particularly modern flavor. . . through this alchemy of institutional and individual power did Stalin's personality cult penetrate the psyche of the Soviet citizenry."--Sean Guillory, New Books in Russia and Eurasia--Sean Guillory "New Books in Russia and Eurasia "
"An excellent study which greatly advances our understanding of one of the most important cultural artifacts of the twentieth century."-- Graeme Gill, Russian Review
--Graeme Gill"Russian Review" (06/01/2012)"Invaluably, Plamper provides a wider framework for considering Socialist Realism, while his history of the Stalin cult of personality and the way that art was organised and controlled under this despotic ruler makes this essential reading for anyone who wants to gain a more profound understanding of the period, the art, and the way it was produced."--Christina Lodder, Burlington Magazine--Chistina Lodder"Burlington Magazine" (11/01/2013)
"A fascinating history of the making and marketing of the Stalinist cult, [characterized by] clarity, sharp analysis, and a deft selection of images and illustrations. . . . A rich, valuable contribution to both modern intellectual history and the history of Russia."--Choice
