Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. For more than three decades, Svetlana Alexievich has been the memory and conscience of the twentieth century.
In The Unwomanly Face of War, Alexievich chronicles the experiences of the Soviet women who fought on the front lines, on the home front, and in the occupied territories.

There were tears all around… The war! How could I have given birth when the war was on?
Finished training of a decoder and was dispatched to the front. My daughter… I was sure that I was going to have a girl. Wanted to go the front line. But was ordered to stay in the commanding office. During the interval, when the lights came on, I saw… We all saw… There was this squall of clapping. A thunderstorm!
In the government box sat Stalin. I knew that my father had been arrested; that my older brother had disappeared in the camps; and yet I felt so euphoric that tears filled my eyes.
I froze with joy! The whole hall… The whole hall was on its feet! Stood up and applauded for ten minutes. This was the state in which I went to the war.
To fight. And in the war I heard whispers… At night the wounded smoke in the corridor. Some are asleep, some still awake. They talk about Tukhachevskii, about Yakir… Thousands of people disappeared! The Ukrainians would tell… how they were driven off their collective farms; how they were silenced… how Stalin organised starvation; they called it golodomor famine. Desperate mothers ate their own children… They talked in whispers. From Siberia… Well!
We had won, we had shown our loyalty, our love. They live in a big village near Odessa. How many died in Russia? Hard to count them all. But there are many who survived. We need hundreds of people like you, my girl, to write our history. To record stories of our sufferings, of our countless tears. You my dear girl… Maria Yakovlevna Yezhova, who served in a sanitary platoon, returned from the war with a phobia of anything red: I stitched myself a red blouse, and after a few days I saw strange spots appear on my hands.
My body had stopped accepting anything red: fabric, flowers roses or carnations. The colour of pomegranate juice is similar but just.
The juice of a ripe pomegranate… In a her brief testimony, an anti-aircraft gunner the testimony records only her initials recalls the following tragic incident witnessed by her: Do you want to hear the truth? At a time when the notion of truth has come under attack, it is imperative to reaffirm the commitment to facts of certain types of narrative, and to examine critically the foundations of this commitment.
But because it takes a background for a figure to emerge clearly, this book will also explore nonfactual types of narratives, thereby providing insights into the nature of narrative fiction that could not be reached from the narrowly literary perspective of early narratology.
The book delivers a thematic analysis of the many ways in which study of the Second World War can take place, considering international, transnational, and global approaches, and serves as a major jumping off point for further research into the specific fields covered by each of the expert authors. It demonstrates the global and total nature of the Second World War, giving due coverage to the conflict in all major theatres and through the lens of the key combatants and neutrals, examines issues of race, gender, ideology, and society during the war, and functions as a textbook to educate students as to the trends that have taken place in how the conflict has been and can be interpreted in the modern world.
Divided into twelve parts that cover central themes of the conflict, including theatres of war, leadership, societies, occupation, secrecy and legacies, it enables those with no memory of war to approach it with a view to comprehending what it was all about and places the history of this conflict into a context that is international, transnational, and institutional.
This is a comprehensive and accessible reference volume for anyone interested in the most up to date scholarship on this major conflict. Whereas in the past they were known chiefly as literary widows or devoted wives, occasionally as poets or critics, and only very rarely as novelists, today they are beginning to dominate publishing lists in fiction and non-fiction alike.
