Soviet Adventures in the Land of the Capitalists: Ilf and Petrov's American Road Trip by Lisa A. Kirschenbaum non fiction But following his sudden arrestIn 1935, two Soviet satirists, Ilia Ilf and Evgeny Petrov, undertook a 10,000 mile American road trip from New York to Hollywood and back accompanied only by their guide and chauffeur, a gregarious Russian Jewish immigrant and his American born, Russian speaking wife. They immortalised their journey in a popular travelogue that condemned American inequality and racism even as it marvelled at American modernity and efficiency. Lisa Kirschenbaum
