战争中没有女性(阿列克谢耶维奇作品)
(belarus) S. A. Alexeevich
During World War II, more than a million women fought in the Soviet Union. They are young girls between the ages of 15 and 30, but they hold responsibilities that are considered "men's positions". They are doctors, snipers, tank infantrymen, submachine gunners... This book is a memoir of Soviet female soldiers and female medical staff during World War II. The war in their eyes brings us a completely different perspective and an unprecedented impact and shock. After decades of traveling across the vast land of the former Soviet Union, Alexievich personally interviewed thousands of people who experienced the events on the front lines, reviewed documents and materials from all parties, and painstakingly compiled the oral history series of the Soviet Union - this is an epic of ordinary people's lives.
