A review by jiujensu
Midnight in Chernobyl: The Untold Story of the World's Greatest Nuclear Disaster by Adam Higginbotham

informative sad medium-paced

4.0

I think I preferred Svetlana Alexievitch's Voices of Chernobyl to this one. She wrote four, including War's Unwomanly Face, that are made of more personal accounts of big wars/disasters in Russian history. 

But this one probably addressed the sequence of events and causes more directly.
