Zaujímavý pohľad na éru stalinizmu. Síce som túto knihu ešte nedočítal celú, (sadám si k nej sporadicky keď mám čas), ale už teraz viem, že mi odhalila veľa informácií, ktoré som doteraz nevedel. Zákulisie Stalinovej rodiny, perzekúcie vo vlastných radoch, každodenná paranoja a strach o holý život...Veľmi dobre písaná kniha.
