9798430551094: The Ninth Circle: In Commemoration of the Victims of the Famine of 1933

Synopsis

A brief but harrowing, and personal look at the Holodomor, the planned famine and genocide of the Ukrainian people in 1933, orchestrated by the USSR. The Holodomor resulted in the deaths of millions. Author Olexa Voropai paints a stark picture of what it was like to live in these times, and uses his own personal stories along with others' accounts.
Although the Ukrainian people mark this tragedy with historical significance, it was almost completely swept under the rug by the USSR, and Russia to this day downplays its cause and effects.
The Ninth Circle is one of the most important and highly regarded accounts of what happened, and the terrible toll that resulted.
