It was talking about Trosky's criticism of Stalin and Kruschev's de-Stalinization and I wasn't really into it

I'm not sure I understand why you'd be interested in a book about Stalin but not those things. They are essential for understanding why the picture of Stalin among the western left is so skewed today.

I misunderstood the premise of the book. I thought it would be more biographical than historiographical.
