pasinsky's review against another edition

dark emotional reflective medium-paced

5.0

Ho amato questo romanzo. La lettura è stata abbastanza veloce, anche grazie al fatto che la maggior parte dei capitoli fosse piuttosto breve. Personaggi ben costruiti e ambientazione affascinante. Assolutamente da leggere per chi sia interessato al periodo della rivoluzione russa e agli anni immediatamente successivi.
