In an attempt to find dictionaries of American literature for Lundin's bibliography, I came across this title in MadCat: And quiet flows the vodka, or, When Pushkin comes to shove : the curmudgeon’s guide to Russian literature and culture, with the devil’s dictionary of received ideas, alphabetical reflection on the loathsomeness of Russia, American Academia, and humanity in general. Yup, that's the whole title. I could say a lot but I won't. I will only say this: only a huge geek would make a pun combining a cliche and a writer's name--Pushkin is probably rolling over in his grave right now.
