Very Nice, Jan 4 1999

This review is from: Holy Nature: A Celebration of Naturism in Today's Russia (Paperback)
Finally, a nudist documentary with intelligent text and great full page color photographs of the people. Reminds me of the Naturist movement in the U.S. in the 50's and 60's -- liberal and idyllic (only this Naturist Movement dates back thousands of years.)

I think all people should see this book and read it.This book is about people being free,real freedom.Its about the connection between ourselves and our earth.Maybe after 200 years some Americans have forgotten what freedom is,we could relearn it from these people.In this book we find beauty,unharnessed,that inherant beauty of all people young and old.Mike Rusinov is a artist and this is his artwork.I think his work rates with all the greats,Sturges,Hamilton,Stanaman etc... I highly recommend this book for those interested in learning about freedom of mind and body.

Slightly disappointing, Jan 21 2002

I was simply disappointed. The photographs are nice. How can you go wrong with photographs of people - especially nudes. Always interesting, always beauty. But if you are drawn to buy this book with any intellectual curiosity regarding Russia, Nudism, aethetics .. I suspect you will be diappointed. There is very little text, very little thought expressed, as is implied in some of their marketing.
