Between 1934 and 1941 Stalin unleashed what came to be known as the
'Great Terror' against millions of Soviet citizens. The same period
also saw the 'Great Retreat', the repudiation of many of the
aspirations of the Russian Revolution. The response of ordinary
Russians to the extraordinary events of this time has been obscure.
Sarah Davies's study uses NKVD and party reports, letters and other
evidence to show that, despite propaganda and repression, dissonant
public opinion was not extinguished. The people continued to
criticise Stalin and the Soviet regime, and complain about
particular policies. The book examines many themes, including
attitudes towards social and economic policy, the terror, and the
leader cult, shedding light on a hugely important part of Russia's
social, political, and cultural history.
