Description

The 'FlEnd Prize-winning War of the Nobel Prize- winning author Svetlana Alexi prepared a book that has gathered the stories of 200 women who fought in war without the face of women. Over a million women fought in the war during World War II, but none of them were remembered by their names and faces. What would happen to women who have been in war? What did they do after the war, and what was it like to learn to kill people? Men tell stories of victory, exploits and battles, battle and commander in battle, but women tell stories about soldiers that are completely different. This book talks about women's wars. Women see people in battle, feel normal, and notice normal things. Fear and despair at the first murder, or the horror and humiliation of the dead walking around in the open fields after the battle. There is the experience of the first menstrual burst of the battlefield, the story of love in the front lines.

I knew this book, actually, why I bought it, but I was the most dramatic F, and I didn't want to buy the sad book because I wasn't going to. But the reason I bought this book was because my husband loved it, and he lent it to me in the library, and I wanted to leave it at home and read it too much. I'm actually reading a book that I want to read, but the groom is a good talker, so he's a good storyteller, so I can read it and tell me a story about Solol. But it was war, and I was listening, but

I knew the terror of war on the surface, but I found it really terrible. It's hard to read from Glucus, but I don't know how many people I've actually experienced are going to be traumatized.

I read the title, "Wars Did Not Have Women's Face," by Svetlana Alessi Zupchi, a Nobel Prize winner in '30. In World War II, the Poison Peace Treaty was signed and soon German troops invaded the Soviet Union. Stalin's troops, who have been advocating powerful Soviet forces, are weakened by the Purge ahead, and the Germans are being sent to Soviet lands. People join the army on their own, and over a million girls fight as girls, and that's how many women fight as straws and underground dukes.

It's interesting to see the war from a female perspective.

Another side of the war. We're dealing with war at a woman who was not interested in it, and the live interviews of the actual veterans of the war were amazing and interesting and useful. Well, the feminist view was rather uncomfortable for a woman who read the same book, and the girl soldiers, and it was so hard to find too emotional and childish memories in the time of the war. It's an ironic book, not just to war, but to the man who's been in the army who would laugh at it when he reads it

The book was intended to be published in 1983, but then it was first released in 1985 and then in 2002 added to the censorship. The stories of the wars, their love, their pain and their life itself, which they have solved in nearly 40 years by personally visiting and leaving the greens there, are more powerful than any other literary work. It was born as a representation of their vivid, rusted voices, with the words of young girls who had jumped fearlessly to save their own country, the Soviet

There is no such evil and horrible thing as war in this world. Tolstoy 14p we didn't know the world without war. The world of war was the only world we knew, and the people of war were the only people we knew. I still don't know the other world or anyone else. But do we really think that other worlds, or people in other worldS, really existed? I can't understand it, but what about those who have lived through war, when they've spent their lives reading books about war? If you see people getting

Is it fiction, is it poet, is this documentary, is that nonfiction, is the electricity? The voices of these women, who transcend the genre, are what make them sink. Women who have survived the war in this book, who tell their stories of hundreds of stories that are almost unbelievable, and then pour out confidential memories that no one has ever told them, finally mourn. The readers are forced to weep with the women in this book. I read them down in their story, even with a thick

The book is about the Soviet Union and its female soldiers who fought in World War II. I read this book from the sitting-place. Sometimes I'm crying and sometimes I'll cry. My heart was filled with the voices of women who fought in war and their sad history. I can hear two things for the reason that I'm feeling so bad. One is that women, or the suffering and grief that humanity has experienced through war, have been spreading, and the other is that we have a great sense of regret that we are
