The Unwomanly Face of War: An Oral History of Women in World War II by Svetlana Alexiévich

informative reflective fast-paced

5.0

oral history of soviet women in wwii NUTS. censorship discussion from early 00s after USSR fell is fascinating. how the book was only published because of gorbachev + glasnost. no printer would touch it because of the content. then 2 million copies printed just like that. AND all the things in the book she added from the censors/self censorship. bruh.
