Zoya will become famous soon enough
I'm now halfway through Ivan's war, too busy reading to be on here much. Life is busy right now. Finding the book a fascinating read though, very engaging and a different perspective, but very anti-Soviet at the same time. I really do want to move onto Russian veterans' accounts of the GPW though. Any recommendations?
