This audiobook set includes essentials from volume one, such as greetings, travelling, numbers, food and drink, shopping, getting around town, business meetings, dating, and telling the time. Followed by volume two with more detailed explanation of Russian phonetics, Russian names, birthdays, taking about planet Earth, flying on a Russian spaceship, and cultural content with fragments of Chekhov, Gagarin, and Shakespeare in Russian. Critic Reviews: "This is a really helpful series starting with the alphabet and 'hello' (vol.1) and graduating to brief extracts from Chekhov and others (vol.2). The 28 units are excellent not just for learning the subtleties of pronunciation but for understanding how the Russian language and Russian minds work." (Rachel Redford, UK)
