The Unwomanly Face of War by Svetlana Alexievich

It's a nonfiction book about the women of the Red Army (and red partisans) in the Second World War, who made up 3% of military personnel, and participated in all kinds of roles. It's a bunch of transcribed interviews that give us various snippets from real women who fought in the war. There's no grand narrative about the conflict, simply the small tales of ordinary women in extraordinary circumstances. It's also one of the most shocking books on war I've ever read and some passages are pretty emotionally difficult to read.

I'm trying to borrow The Pattern Seekers: How Autism Drives Human Invention by Simon Baron-Cohen from the library. I saw it on their online catalogue and thought it seemed interesting.
