Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Unwomanly Face of War: An Oral History of Women in World War II is a collection of first-person accounts of women enlisted in the Red Army (or among the partisans) during World War II, written by Belarusian journalist Svetlana Alexievich in her usual style. It was first published in Russian in 1985, when the Glanost note Russian for openness, a relaxed control of press allowed her to publish a book which did not portray the Great Patriotic War as glorious.The accounts were collected from hundreds of women who served in the Red Army in various positions: medical personnel, but also as pilots, snipers, machine gunners, tank crew members, and partisans, as well as in auxiliary roles. They are presented as "monologues" of different lengths with occasional notes from the author. The witnesses are listed with their names and role in the army, while many others stayed anonymous.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The narrative wants to subvert the usual trope that depicts the epicity of war times and collected personal stories from an intimate point of view, which the Soviet censorship would not allow as it was too unpatriotic. The book does not shy away from the ugliest details, so expect lots of Nightmare Fuel and Tear Jerker.Beginning in 2019, it received a manga adaptation done by Keito Koume. | |

Amusing Injuries: Deconstructed. Young nurse Zinaida Korzh was wounded...in her buttocks. She was too embarrassed to ask for help and stayed silent. Unfortunately, any untreated wound can become a serious problem and in a few days she passed out from blood loss. | |

America Won World War II: Averted. The book focuses entirely on the Soviet-German War, which was the deadliest battlefront in the war and shows the tremendous price paid by soldiers and civilians. | |
