A dispassionate, even-handed account of totalitarian cruelty
Evening Standard
A welcome memoir that still shocks. From this epic document comes a clear picture of violent, but conflicting, prison societies
Independent
An extraordinary testament. Written in crisp, clear prose, without self-pity, it makes for an electrifying read
Daily Express
Margarete Buber-Neumann's memoir, Under Two Dictators, is one of the great classics of the totalitarian age, but with a unique perspective, since she suffered as a prisoner of both Stalin and then Hitler. Moving, powerful and clear-sighted, it is an unforgettable book by a very courageous woman
Antony Beevor
She describes clearly the paranoia of Russia during the 1930s and the brutality of the gulags. Her narrative of the last years of second world war in the German camps is horribly moving, in particular her portrayal of the women worked or gassed to death
