When the Swedish Academy awarded Svetlana Alexievich the Nobel Prize, it cited her for inventing "a new kind of literary genre", describing her work as "a history of emotions - a history of the soul". Alexievich's distinctive documentary style, combining extended individual monologues with a collage of voices, records the stories of ordinary women and men who are rarely given the opportunity to speak, whose experiences are often lost in the official histories of the nation.

Sad warning. I wish I could meet the people who shared their lives here, just so I could be kind to them. Thanks to Svetlana Alexievich for the work and to Bela Shayevich for translating.
What helped this audiobook work for me were the narrators. Flawless! I listen to perhaps 50 books each year—these women and men were chosen perfectly to narrate these hard stories.
My heart is for the sufferers of the USSR/formerUSSR. May God help you to find comfort, true peace, and genuine love.
