One of the few books I purchased after reading a library copy. A glimpse into the soulless soul of the former Soviet Union and modern Russia. A great read.

A great read? ／ ／ .......... INTERVIEWER Perhaps because of Trump. Many women protested when he was elected, marched in Washington. Perhaps it feels good to read about these women. ALEXIEVICH To see what a woman can do. And why are young people interested? INTERVIEWER I think they are afraid Trump will start a war. ALEXIEVICH Yes, and the Russians behind him. How did you elect Trump? INTERVIEWER It wasn’t me. As an Australian, I couldn’t vote against him. ALEXIEVICH Clinton wasn’t loved, was she? And now, would America support Clinton, or him still? Did they not become disillusioned, his voters? Are they sorry?
