I'm about to start reading it. Thank you so much for your review. I just finished reading "The unwomanly face of war" and it is such a piece of art filled with mixed emotions.
Eloquent as always. I appreciate your book reviews for feeling--to me, at least--rigorously mulled over, and from a a broad gaze. I love that you reviewed this one. Your enthusiasm and excitement is palpable... I just love it.
I am finishing "Secondhand Time" and was totally struck by the amount of literature that consumed the every day person. I can now see how and why some soviets pine for the Communist way of life. It is an eye opener for me
This is an well spoken and intelligently reflected video ! Thank you from Kharkiv, Ukraine !

Good review! One of the greatest books I've read in a number of years. Haunting, devastating. Am planning on reading the rest of Alexievich's works.

From my understanding, education was highly valued in everyday life there
Hi Ani! A little late but I'm so glad I got to watch this today. Definitely adding this to my tbr! The quotes were amazing!
Hello there! Thank you for watching! Can’t wait to learn more on what you think of the book when you get to it! Cheers to more bookish discoveries! ♥️
Svetlana Alexievich is klass 😉! Adding it to my tbr. Love Dostoyevsky lurking from the shelf 😀❤️
