From film to book

MPI fellow Ben Lewis has turned his funny and revealing documentary about Communism, jokes, and freedom, Hammer & Tickle, into a book--and it is getting rave reviews.

The Spectator calls it "charming, highly original, elegantly written and valuable piece of cultural history."

The Sunday Times pronounces it "marvelously original."

The New Statesman calls it "wonderful," "marvelous," and "deeply scholarly."

Reviews have also appeared in the Telegraph, the Scotsman, and a host of other blogs and mainstream media outlets.

Check out the book (read an excerpt here), and if you can, see the film, which won Best New Documentary at the 2006 Zurich Film Festival.
