Critiques
Staline (2) par Simon Sebag Montefiore
Un incroyable travail, riche, profond, indispensable. D'une très grande profondeur humaine.
Une somme... Assez originale. Un des noms les plus connus de l'histoire russe, et un personnage au choix soit totalement méconnu, totalement méprisé, totalement décrié...
Alors là, quand on rencontre son éditeur et qu'on lui dit "je vais ma lancer dans un biographie" ... "monumentale"... "dont le sujet"... "est"..."Jérusalem"... et bien on sait si son éditeur a le cœur solide ;-)
