The Russian punk collective will document their recent struggles in an e-book.
Entitled PUSSY RIOT! A Punk Prayer for Freedom, the book will be released in two weeks by the Feminist Press. According to its subtitle, it promises “letters from prison, songs, poems, and courtroom statements, plus tributes to the punk band that shook the world.”
Tributes come from some of the band’s international supporters: Yoko Ono, JD Samson (Le Tigre, MEN), Johanna Fateman (Le Tigre, MEN), Karen Finley, Justin Vivian Bond, and Eileen Myles. Available for $2.99, proceeds will benefit the group’s legal fund.
The latest chapter in the ongoing Pussy Riot saga, the book comes on the heels of a celebrity tribute video from the collective. [via Exclaim.ca]
