Review of 'Six Red Months in Russia' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

A good mix of engaging and informative.
Very unique account of one woman’s unbelievably daring immersion into the October revolution. There are many insights into human behavior that can hopefully be applied to the next attempt at a Proletarian uprising, and specifics to Russia’s context.

The complete and unceremonious decline of antisemitism, having been revealed as a mere rough pretext of anti authoritarianism.

The surprisingly magnanimous behavior of those who underwent centuries of oppression to their former oppressors.

The obvious bias of the supposedly free press being the mouthpiece of a few capitalists, and how that’s not any better than an explicitly controlled press that at least has an obvious agenda.
