Finally I‘ve read this very important book. So much sorrow from each tale, each personal tragedy. From the inability of humanity to learn and get better. Almost 40 years passed and we are no better off.

For he does not know was cut off #wintergames
Edge of the seat thriller. Eventhough I do feel some storylines are not necessary or too long at times.

Is actually good ,
the main character in my book is know as a super recognizer, someone who never forgets a face , plus the book is filled with the author's own time working under the detection of the U.S. Department Defense, it's actually really good .already 33% in it
I was hoping for a well researched and comprehensive analysis and narrative of the history of Eastern Europe and its complex relationship with nationalism and ethnic identity. Instead, Anne Applebaum delivered a rather heartless travelogue of her journey through the former Soviet Union. Her comments on people‘s appearances are prejudiced, condescending, and derogatory. She continuously fat-shames people to the point where I almost dnf‘d the book.
Ugh. Devestating and infuriating. A book of collected stories from those affected by the meltdown. Citizens, soldiers, scientists, and volunteers. Took me all month to read it. It was good.. just heavy. All the triggers btw..
Fascinating reportage, between journalism and anthropology.
