Cool Book Alert: FUEL's newest is 'Looking for Lenin'

FUEL PUBLISHING does it again. The latest in the imprint’s series of books exposing funky, unexpected areas of Soviet design is Looking for Lenin, a collection of photographs of toppled, warehoused, defaced, decapitated and disfigured Ukrainian Lenin statues, brought down in the name of Leninopad (Lenin-fall) following a 2015 Parliamentary ban on Soviet symbols. “This Lenin head is more than two meters tall and previously stood on the site of the V.I. Lenin Nuclear Power Station (Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant),” the authors write. “It is now stored in a room used by the facility cleaning staff. Despite the authorities’ claims of contamination, no significant levels of radiation were found.”
