Tre generasjoner i krig og kjærlighet 1900-tallet er historie, og det blir produsert mange bøker som tar utgangspunkt i det 20. århundret. Ei av disse er "Barn av Stalin". Owen Matthews er født på begynnelsen av 1970-tallet, men rakk å utrette mye før vi gikk over i et nytt århundre. Han har jobbet som journalist og er i dag leder for magasinet Newsweeks kontor i Moskva. I boka "Barn av Stalin" presenterer han 1900-tallets Sovjetunionen, den kalde krigen og de elleville 1990-årene i Moskva ved å fortelle historiene om sine besteforeldre, foreldre og om sitt eget liv. Call it irrationality, call it Russian maximalism, but the letters, papers and confidences Matthews inhabits in “Stalin’s Children” rehabilitate all the generations they touch — including his own — showing how their times shaped their choices. Owen Matthews has an extraordinary story to tell, spanning three generations of his own family, all caught up with the cataclysmic events of Russia in the 20th century. Prix et récompenses
On a midsummer day in 1937, Boris Bibikov kissed his two daughters goodbye and disappeared. One of those girls, Lyudmila, was to fall in love with a tall young foreigner in Moscow at the height of the Cold War and embark on a dangerous and passionate affair. Decades later, a reporter in nineties Moscow, her son Owen Matthews pieces together his grandfather's passage through the harrowing world of Stalin's purges, and tells the story of his parents' Cold War love affair through their heartbreaking letters and memories. Stalin's Children is a raw, vivid memoir about a young man's struggle to understand his parents' lives and the history of the strange country in which they lived.
