About the book: 2011 / The memoirs tell about the life of an intelligent family that experienced all the vicissitudes of the Stalin era. The strong and resilient characters of the book’s heroes gradually lead them not only to an understanding (partial or complete) of the essence of the events taking place in the country, but also to growing resistance, sometimes expressed in unexpected actions.
