A review by frantically
Red Famine: Stalin's War on Ukraine, 1921-1933 by Anne Applebaum

dark informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

4.25

This was such an important read for me and I learned so much about Ukrainian history and especially about how the USSR interacted with other countries during the 20th century. 

I'm German, so I'm used to seeing only one rhetoric (one that acknowledges the USSR had issues but none as bad as Germany) and this was a really interesting different perspective. 

The way Applebaum uses her sources is something I can only aspire to as a history student.
