Well researched, meticulously cited, and a necessary history to uphold truths that regimes would prefer be silenced. This book is a testament to the beauty and resilience of the Ukrainian people in the face of unspeakable atrocities.

At times challenging to read, I learned a tremendous amount from this book.

Excellent, informative book that had me at the edge a few times. An excellent book examining the holodomorr.

Easily one of the best history books I have read. Such an important topic. Writer is fantastic like she always is!! Packed with so much information. The people of Ukraine went under unbelievable torment while under Soviet control. Easily one of the worst atrocities in modern times. Millions of people being starved to death was only the top of the iceberg. It’s fair to say that the abuse still continues till this day. I recommend this book!!
