Negative Positive
Title: Apologist for Communists?
Review: Warning, be prepared to guffaw while reading the Introduction by Antony Beevor. In it he states, "Stalin was merely amused by the idea of the Red Army soldiers having 'some fun' after a hard war. Meanwhile, loyal Communists and commisars were taken aback and embarrassed by the mass rapes." Weren't most of the army who partook in the rapes the very loyal Communists he claims were appalled by rape?!The book itself was very thoughtful and well written by the anonymous female author.
Is the review positive or negative?
