The dark side of post-communism has been revealed as China and Russia have entered into a series of social and political upheavals leading them into a savage capitalism that rightly brings to mind what Karl Marx warned against. All of a sudden, after the iron curtain of totalitarianism was lifted, the floodgates of the money craze were opened. Literature has described these frenetic changes with extraordinarily keen perception and a highly developed sense of satire.
