Description
Hardcover. Moore-Pataleewa, Barbara. I Am a Woman From Soviet Russia. London: Victor Gollancz Ltd., 1943. 304 blz.
This book is Barbara Moore-Pateleewa's life story from her birth in 1905 near Saratov in Russia to the time the book was written in 1943. This book is an easy read and full of fascinating anecdotes about her life through the struggles of life in the early days of the Soviet Union when she trained as a doctor, through to her leaving the country just before the war. If all her stories are true then this is a remarkable journey, however, one wonders whether some of her tales, her 'fame' as a motorcyclist, her 'confession' to the head of the the GPU (forerunner of the KGB) and meeting with Stalin's daughter Krupskaya, etc., are not a little fantastical. After the book was written she went on to become an advocate of extreme food-fadism, the film footage of her grass diet are also fascinating to watch. A good read but to be taken with a bit of a pinch of salt, I think.
