Daytime Stars
Olga Berggolts
For 872 days during World War II, the city of Leningrad endured a crushing blockade at the hands of German forces. Amid the devastation, Olga Berggolts broadcast her poems on the one remaining radio station. Berggolts wrote her memoir Daytime Stars in the spirit of the thaw after Stalin's death. In it, she celebrated the ideals of the revolution and the heroism of the Soviet people.
