I’m glad it’s working for you and am sure you’ve finished by now. I’ll look forward to your review.

I haven’t really read much set in the Cold War era, but now feel like I’d like to read more.

Thank you, because if your review hadn’t been so positive I wouldn’t have read the book. I feel like I’m burned out on historical fiction, but this is so good!

I’m on the list for it. Glad you liked it. I agree you can get a lot out of historical fiction.

If you take out the fiction element in those, then you’re left with biographies which isn’t really the point of historical fiction. Is it?

I need to watch Chernobyl. I’ve heard great things about it.

I really like when historical fiction teaches me something about the past and this one definitely did.

I love the prose, hate the fictionalization. (Z: A Novel, The Paris Wife, The Aviator’s Wife are just a few that so frustrating that I dug up the biographies.)

This one sounds great.
