Leningrad: de tragedie van een belegerde stad, 1941-1944

Recounting the suffering of ordinary people adds so much depth, but I wonder what motivated Reid to highlight these stories in particular.

The descriptions of hunger, cold, and resilience made me think about how people coped in such extreme circumstances. Would love to hear if others felt a similar emotional weight.

The interplay between historical events and individual experiences made the story more vivid, but I’m curious about how the author decided what to emphasize.
