dark emotional funny hopeful informative reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.5

Prachtig boek over hoe Sovjetvrouwen voor onze vrijheid hebben gevochten. Het boek bestaat uit fragmenten van de ervaringen van die vrouwen tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Hun ervaringen variëren omdat hun posities variëren. Elk schijnt licht op deze kant van de oorlog die heel lang onbesproken is. De verhalen van deze vrouwen zijn gruwelijk, mooi, verdrietig en hoopvol. 

Content warning voor bloed, verkrachting, dood, verwondingen, oorlog.

I’ve read a lot about WWII but this was different. More real. More raw.

Also, reading this while serving in the military was a quite the experience. While I haven’t experienced war, it’s strange how many of the typical military things I recognized.
