Nothing I read on Stalin comes close to portraying him in a flattering light. What a truly horrific man. Yet there were many in the Soviet leadership of his time who were just as bad. I think on that and tremble! Beria is the one man who would make Himmler seem bearable. And on the subject of would-be gods, Pyongyang sounds like a truly oppressive world of its own. At least the concrete hells of apartments blocks are colourful...
ReplyDeleteThat story about goitres in Switzerland was fascinating!
