I had a passion for Solzhenitsyn (hey, the spellchecker thinks I spelled that right!) when I was in high school - I heard of a lot of Russian cities there.
Several of these places I know only because I had a book on the Soviet chemical and biological weapons programme and they were marked on the little map with a biohazard symbol.
