Red Harvest: A Graphic Novel of the Terror Famine in Soviet Ukraine by Michael Cherkas

challenging dark emotional informative sad slow-paced

5.0

Heartbreaking. This graphic novel tells the story of Holodomor, the Ukrainian Famine, by following the POV of different family members throughout the novel. The artwork is stunning and done in such a way that it adds dramatically to the sense of terror and grief the people of the Ukrainian village Zelenyi Hai are experiencing under Stalin's rule. Really a stunning piece of work that taught me a lot about a subject I didn't know anything about prior to picking up the book.
