1991

Finished another book. This author has a specific style in which the books are composed of the testimony of several people about a topic, and those testimony are collected, selected and arranged by the author. So it's non fiction. In this case, the topic is the collapse of the USSR and the transition to from "communism to capitalism". It reminded me that these things didn't happen long ago, it's actually quite recent. Also, I've read a bunch of Tolstoy and Dostoievski novels so exploring the Russian culture makes me think about them in a new (more informed I hope) light.
This is second book I've read by this author, the first one was "The unwomanly face of war", with the testimony of woman WW2 veterans.
