Soviet Scars: Famines Behind the Iron Curtain (3 in 1)

The first section examines the Holodomor, the Ukrainian famine many historians recognize as a genocide, deliberately engineered to crush national resistance and enforce loyalty to the Communist regime. The second account, Stalin’s Harvest of Despair, uncovers the mechanisms of state terror that targeted peasant populations across the Soviet Union, exposing the systematic confiscation of food and the silencing of dissent. Finally, the third section provides a detailed overview of the Soviet Famine of 1932–1933, drawing from survivor testimonies, archival documents, and newly uncovered evidence to paint a comprehensive picture of the scope, impact, and historical denial surrounding these atrocities. This sobering collection shines a light on the cruelty and consequences of authoritarian control, and the enduring scars left on generations who lived—and died—behind the Iron Curtain.
