Life in 1845
Revisado: 03-25-22
Interesting to hear the intertwined lives of so many people. The course to Oregon was brutal and deadly Religion, so many different cultures and disease. This is such a personal story.

Historia
Two victims of the infamous Cleveland kidnapper share the story of their abductions, their decade in captivity, and their final, dramatic rescue. On May 6, 2013, Amanda Berry made headlines around the world when she fled a Cleveland area home and called 911, saying: “Help me, I’m Amanda Berry...I’ve been kidnapped, and I’ve been missing for 10 years". A horrifying story rapidly unfolded. Ariel Castro, a local school bus driver, had separately lured Berry, Gina DeJesus, and Michelle Knight to his home, where he kept them chained in the basement.

Michelle knight
Revisado: 02-15-21
I read this and Michelle Knights book. My heart goes out to all 3 victims but more so to Michelle. She was dealt a horrible card in life when her relatives raped her starting at 5 years old. Then all the tragedy that occurred at the hands of Castro. God bless your souls.

Author is to be held responsible for his choices
Revisado: 08-21-20
The author writes that God tells him and people like him that it is ok to dominate the masses. God nor Jesus ever said that. The author comes out about all of this, not while he is destroying other countries ability to develop through predatory loans, but well after he has retired. The author should look at himself in the mirror and take responsibility for his choices. God bless all of you.

Historia
Drawing on a huge range of sources - letters, memoirs, conversations - Orlando Figes tells the story of how Russians tried to endure life under Stalin. Those who shaped the political system became, very frequently, its victims. Those who were its victims were frequently quite blameless. The Whisperers recreates the sort of maze in which Russians found themselves, where an unwitting wrong turn could either destroy a family or, perversely, later save it: a society in which everyone spoke in whispers - whether to protect themselves, their families, neighbours or friends - or to inform on them.

Saddest book ever
Revisado: 12-08-19
In reading this well detailed and researched book concerning the day to day life of Russian citizens. It’s so disheartening to read what they had to go through. All the horrible circumstances that were forced on to them in the name of communism and Stalin. This book attempts to do the individual life stories of Russians but no book can ever reveal the day to day horrible circumstances of having your family ripped from you and even worse having your sons or daughters ashamed of you because you were arrested and sent to a gulag. Stalin’s statement that if were we 10% correct on who who killed or sent to gulags then he was fine with that. Recently, I visited Moscow and the city and people are beautiful. God bless Russia.
