In the long-awaited follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize-winning Gulag, acclaimed journalist Anne Applebaum delivers a groundbreaking history of how Communism took over Eastern Europe after World War II and transformed in frightening fashion the individuals who came under its sway.
At the end of World War II, the Soviet Union to its surprise and delight found itself in control of a huge swath of territory in Eastern Europe. Stalin and his secret police set out to convert a dozen radically different countries to Communism, a completely new political and moral system. In Iron Curtain, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Anne Applebaum describes how the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe were created and what daily life was like once they were complete. She draws on newly opened East European archives, interviews, and personal accounts translated for the first time to portray in devastating detail the dilemmas faced by millions of individuals trying to adjust to a way of life that challenged their every belief and took away everything they had accumulated. Today the Soviet Bloc is a lost civilization, one whose cruelty, paranoia, bizarre morality, and strange aesthetics Applebaum captures in the electrifying pages of Iron Curtain.

“At the end of World War II, the Soviet Union to its surprise and delight found itself in control of a huge swath of territory in Eastern Europe.”
“To it’s surprise and delight”? Really? I mean, the Soviets were the main force defeating Germany and they liberated all of those territories themselves. Plus, at the Yalta conference, Churchill, FDR and Stalin outlined spheres of influence. If anything it was not to their surprise.

They sure as hell were delighted.

Oh yes, the Soviets surely liberated Eastern Europe from the evil West. Everyone knows this. Apart from those that died.
Use this as a starting place when learning the Russian Saviours: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Bloc
Pitch, blease. We’re talking about Russia.

“the Soviets were the main force defeating Germany and they liberated all of those territories themselves”
The Soviets were the allies of the Nazis and helped start WW2. They then raped and pillaged all that territory thanks to untold food, oil, trucks, and ammo delivered by the US - they nearly were wiped out because their dictator ordered a whole bunch of their best officers murdered to prevent anyone competent from opposing him.
Never forget the evils of communism and how many hundreds of millions were victims.
