A review by justahussyfromakron
Siberia by Lisa Barocas Anderson, Blake Ferris, Nikolai Maslov, Emmanuel Carrère
4.0
Omg! I read a graphic novel!
I was recommended others but none of them were at the library. This looked interesting and a nice quick read. Surprisingly, I even enjoyed it.
But seriously...the author is a Russian peasant who grew up during the Soviet period and this is his life work. It's deceptively simple and dreamlike in narrative. His life is completely ordinary by Russian standards yet hard to fathom for Western people.
