But another random opening brought me to Louis Kosseth (1802-1894), Ivan Petrovych Kotliarevsky, Mykhailo [Mykhailovych] Kotsiubnsky, and the beginning of the the article on the Kremlin. Bingo! I do know about the Kremlin -- it would have been surprising if I didn't since I grew up during the Cold War -- but the three men are all strangers.
In any case, this is a great "bathroom" book -- and my husband enjoyed it there for several months. In fact, it's one of the few times I ever see him read. Since I assume that anyone reading this can automatically be described as a bibliophile, I'm sure you all would read this Dictionary in many rooms of your house. I highly recommend that, if you find a copy while wandering your local used book store, you buy it. You'll have some fun and probably learn a few things at the same time.
