In the long-awaited follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize-winning Gulag, acclaimed journalist Anne Applebaum delivers a groundbreaking history of how Communism took over Eastern Europe after World War II and transformed in frightening fashion the individuals who came under its sway.

At the end of World War II, the Soviet Union to its surprise and delight found itself in control of a huge swath of territory in Eastern Europe. Stalin and his secret police set out to convert a dozen radically different countries to Communism, a completely new political and moral system. In Iron Curtain, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Anne Applebaum describes how the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe were created and what daily life was like once they were complete. She draws on newly opened East European archives, interviews, and personal accounts translated for the first time to portray in devastating detail the dilemmas faced by millions of individuals trying to adjust to a way of life that challenged their every belief and took away everything they had accumulated. Today the Soviet Bloc is a lost civilization, one whose cruelty, paranoia, bizarre morality, and strange aesthetics Applebaum captures in the electrifying pages of Iron Curtain.

As someone who has dedicated decades to the study of Eastern Europe, both pre- and post-1989, I found Dr Applebaum's work to be innovative, informative and even entertaining. I would have preferred more attention be given to Czechoslovakia and perhaps Romania, but understand that the volume would have had to be considerably longer. Ms. Campbell's performance as narrator deserves high praise as well.

I am German native, born in east Germany shortly before the wall was falling. I learned a lot about east Germany but also about other members of the eastern block. if you are remotely interested in the history of the eastern block, go for it.

the only negative was the pronunciation of German names and quotes. A lot of them were not to understand at all. Even as a native speaker.
Now I don't expect correct prounciation. I know how difficult that would be for a non native. But maybe the producer could have hired a German speaker to help.

Nevertheless I liked this narration a lot!

an epic book, fun to listen to but...
