Title: Eleven Winters of Discontent
Description: "In this book, Sherzod Muminov draws on extensive Japanese, Russian, and English archives-including more than a hundred memoirs and survivor interviews-to piece together a portrait of life in Siberia and in Japan after World War II. Eleven Winters of Discontent reveals the real people underneath facile tropes of the prisoner of war and expands our understanding of the Cold War front. This book is the first comprehensive English-language study of the captivity of more than 600,000 Japanese former servicemen in the Soviet labor camps in the wake of World War II"--
