What happened March 2, 1953 when Stalin had a stroke? No one has a totally accurate picture but this graphic novel, inspired by real events, paints a picture of the historical events. The book depicts Stalin's illness and the reaction of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Central Committee who gathered to react to the crisis. None of them wanted to make a decision themselves and so they met and tried to decide what to do next. Nobody wanted to make a decision that could come back on them and end up with blame yet most were simultaneously scheming about their future post-Stalin. Wonderful art paired with a significant historic story.
