This book is very exciting! Very well written, it devours! More importantly, it has the advantage of telling a true story, although it was difficult to believe: that the systematic gratin blindness of the French intelligentsia against the Soviet reality! ... Gulags, lying, manipulation, betrayal erected in patriotic virtues etc .... This reminds me of the wall of silence covering another reality which our intellectuals do not want to hear from the intervention in Iraq: that of horrors perpetrated by another Stalin, Saddam Hussein! "The Black Book of Saddam Hussein," Edit "Oh," was scandalously ignored by the media, this to the same petty reasons that Kravchenko had to face in 1948: a frenzied anti-Americanism and a pathological refusal to consider in its history Overall, past and present! -
