Some rabid anti-communist told be to read this book as proof of a Soviet genocide in Ukraine.

I did a quick search and saw it being passed around and referenced in anti-communists circles like /r/ENOUGHCOMMIESPAM, but I haven’t seen any leftist evaluations of this book or this author. So is anyone familiar with this, and how seriously should I take it?
