I have had this book for God knows how long. Never crossed my mind to pick it up. One day, I just decided to read it. And never stop till I reached the last page. This is the first book on war that I've read. The author manages to depict the life during the Siege of Leningrad in the Second World War. The whole story revolves around a seasoned pilot who was enlisted in the Russian Air Force. Through his eyes, the reader is carried into a world of misery, despair and hope. Beautifully written and riveting till the end. You could almost picture the characters in their act in between the lines. A must read for those who love war stories.
Points to learn:
- war is never a solution..it only acts to aggravate the problem (in both sides)
