A graphic novel about the world's first man in space Yury Gagarin and the lead Soviet rocket engineer and spacecraft designer Sergey Korolev has been released in the UK. The 64-paged book entitled "Yuri's Day: The Road to the Stars" tells the dramatic story of the early Soviet space race and the years after the legendary flight of 1961. The authors of the graphic novel - Andrew King, Piers Bizony Pete Hodkinson - aimed to reveal "the drama and complexity of Soviet life in its insane and often cruel glory."
