A review by mmorenagomes
Vozes de Tchernóbil by Svetlana Alexiévich

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

3.5

Couldn’t handle the whole situation, couldn’t read a single story without crying. Even tough I have read Svetlana’s books about war, this one hits different, it changed my perspective of the accident, it made Tchernobyl real.
