Reviews

Pro-dvizhenie is an engaging textbook that not only helps students advance in their proficiency range but also deepens their understanding of the Russophone world and humanistic values and ideas in general. It is the textbook that the field has long been waiting for and will be an extremely valuable addition to the 3rd- and 4th-year Russian language curricula across the country. * Slavic and East European Journal *
