The Soviet response to the famine is actually a really interesting topic. I’ve fascinated people with examples of famine relief, and Pavel Luk’ianenko is an especially interesting historical figure. The class war involving the rural petite‐bourgeoisie sounds like it was pretty intense, too. It’s a shame that teaching this history is so stigmatized in the West.
