This is a good point and a caveat I always warn people of when I insist they read it. I have to actively concentrate on it. I'm listening to the unabridged audio book. Part of it could be because the sound quality isn't great since my copy was originally copied off cassette tapes, but I think it's just because it's dry historical accounts. It's breathtaking but it is a historical account of events that occurred. I think there's always a sort of dryness in that genre by default. It's a bit of a job almost at times to listen. Knowledge is potential power though, so it should be heard or read by all.
Great book, but a hard read. The way he describes what happened is legitimately chilling and depressing. Necessary book though.
I listened to it, the abridged version at that. Excellent book that needs to be MANDATORY reading.
We’re living through what he saw rn, in 2021. Communists have operated this way worldwide for a century
