Does anyone here know of any accounts - comprehensible to a general reader - of the lives of ordinary people in the Soviet satellite states during the collapse of the Soviet Union?
I'm less interested in the separate countries eg GDR, CSSR, Poland, Romania etc, and more in the Soviet states eg Georgia, Moldova, Belarus etc.
My curiosity is to understand how ordinary lives felt, and changed, during the collapse of a seemingly endless political and financial system, and perhaps to read how people adapted (if at all).
Boosts welcome.
