My first and last book by this author.
2 stars because there is not many books that talk about nations and countries that were occupied by communist soviet union, and we desperately need to talk about this and see that it is a huge part of human history, human experience. And I kind of liked the style. Other than that, it would get a 1, if not a 0. If a book makes me want to only read books from female authors and about female experience, it was not for me. That is to put my opinion lightly. If a man likes this book and this author, it would be extremely important to know why, because there are wrong answers, and you should run if you heard one.
