Last Witnesses: Unchildlike Stories by Svetlana Alexiévich, Larissa Volokhonsky, Richard Pevear

dark emotional hopeful sad tense

5.0

 Wow. This book was harrowing, important, and has had an incredible impact on me. It’s such a personal angle on the war, so separate from the cold, objective history textbooks. To see how different people reacted in such a dire moment and the impact on their lives was incredible, and it was incredibly well written. Everyone should read this.
