کتاب از شروع فوق العاده‌ای برخورداره ولی متناسب با این شروع طوفانی به پیش نمیره. کشش داستان در برخی از قسمت‌ها افت محسوسی پیدا میکنه و در برخی از مواقع حس میکردم که نویسنده از فضای واقع‌گرایی که داستان در بسترش واقع شده عمداً یا سهواً دور میشه. به طور کلی با روایت خواندنی، جذاب و نسبتاً پرکشش و تا حدی احساسی در کتاب روبرو هستیم و البته هنر و قدرت اصلی نویسنده درترسیم و القا سیر تحولیه که در شخصیت اول داستان رخ میده .

I couldn't wait to read it after hearing so many good reviews. I read several books on repressions and WWII in Russia. I absolutely loved V. Grossman book 'Life and Fate', and I was missing similar depth in Guzel's characters. There were 2 passages tho which I found so realistic: I was there with them and truly believed what was happening. Overall I liked it and now I am looking forward to watching the series.

Long, rambling, pointless and a little odd.
