Review of Catalogue of Ships: Episode 1 - Ilya Kutik

That was quite a listening experience!
An accomplished Russian poet teaching a class on Catalogue of Ships, partially narrated by a comparative literature student, all the while driven by modern nearly-techno music. The professor's voice is part Russian and part alien and unfortunately not always understandable. A cool radio listening experience that leaves one wondering what just happened and what it all means.
Sounds like college to me!
