Summary:
"Bringing together dozens of voices in her distinctive style (polyphonic writing),
Last
Witnesses
is Svetlana Alexievich's collection of the memories of those who were
children
during
World
War
II
. These men and women were both
witnesses
and sometimes soldiers as well, and their generation grew up with the trauma of the
war
deeply embedded in them--a trauma that would forever change the course of the Russian nation. This is a new version of the
war
we're so familiar with. Alexievich gives voice to those whose stories are lost in the official narratives, creating a powerful alternative
history
from the personal and private experiences of individuals. Collectively, these voices provide a kaleidoscopic portrait of the human consequences of the
war
."
