Selected as a Book of the Year 2019 by The Times and Telegraph
'Astonishing. . . Like the great Russian novels, these testimonials
ring with emotional truth' - Caroline Moorehead, Guardian
Extraordinary stories about what it was like to be a Soviet child
during the upheaval and horror of the Second World War, from Nobel
Laureate Svetlana Alexievich What did it mean to grow up in the
Soviet Union during the Second World War? In the late 1970s,
Svetlana Alexievich started interviewing people who had experienced
war as children, the generation that survived and had to live with
the trauma that would forever change the course of the Russian
nation. With remarkable care and empathy, Alexievich gives voice to
those whose stories are lost in the official narratives, uncovering
a powerful, hidden history of one of the most important events of
the twentieth century.Published to great acclaim in the USSR in
1985 and now available in English for the first time, this
masterpiece offers a kaleidoscopic portrait of the human
consequences of the war - and an extraordinary chronicle of the
Russian soul.
