Tbilisi. The Literature Museum has hosted on
December 24 the presentation of
translation of Timothy Snyder’s book "Bloodlands: Europe between Hitler and
Stalin”.
"Timothy
Snyder is the American historian and the Yale University professor. He is
researching a two-decade period, when fourteen million people had fallen
victims to the systems of Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. These people
weren’t soldiers, they were not killed during military operations, they were
peaceful citizens of the Baltic States, Belarus, Ukraine, Poland and other
countries of the region, who ultimately became victims of these totalitarian
regimes.
In his
work Timothy Snyder depicts this bloody statistics of the twentieth century and
lets us see individual humans behind these historic reports”, the book’s
description says.
The
book was translated and published by "Radarami”, with participation and
financial support of the South Caucasus Regional Bureau of the Heinrich Boll
Foundation.
