Lady Death: The Memoirs of Stalin's Sniper | Lyudmila Pavlichenko
5 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
"Pavlichenko was World War II's best-scoring sniper and had a varied wartime career that included trips to England and America. In June 1941, when Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa, she left her university studies, ignored the offer of a position as a nurse, to become one of Soviet Russia's 2000 female snipers. Less than a year later she had 309 recorded kills, including 29 enemy sniper kills. She was withdrawn from active duty after being injured: she was also regarded as a key heroic figure for the war effort." --Publisher description.

As a historian who research women's history I always enjoy reading her-story. However it was a bit hard to read because of the cruel things happend in the WWII and because it was a bit dry. But I am glad I read it.

wanderinglynn Haven‘t read the article, but it‘s easy to understand why the American media didn‘t know what to make of her because as a sniper, she fits neither as a virgin or whore. And we all know women only fall into those two categories. 🙄 4y
Texreader @wanderinglynn What‘s worse is that it was the women journalists asking her the absurd questions: did she wear makeup when she was out sniping? Did she curl her hair? 4y
wanderinglynn 🙄 And sadly in 2020, journalists still ask amazing, powerful women what designer are they wearing. 4y
