Dear Sarah,
We have a special chapter in our catalogue "Three waves of Russian
emigration" http://www.panrus.com/books/category.php?langID=1&catID=260
Also there are several books of memoirs published by Russian emigre
of the third wave living in Boston. Are you interested in these books?
Please advise.
