This book delves into the intertwined histories of two families—one Russian, the other Jewish—spanning the period from the aftermath of the Civil War to the 1970s of the twentieth century. Throughout the narrative, our central characters endure the hardships of famine, repression, the Great Patriotic War, post-war struggles, the thaw of the Soviet regime, and the era of Brezhnev. It is a historical saga that intimately chronicles their everyday lives, their poignant reunions and heart-wrenching separations, their resilience and acts of heroism, all amidst the profound backdrop of enduring love and appreciation despite the adversities they face. Initially appearing so different, with distinct customs and traditions, these families find themselves united by shared tribulations and joys, imposed by the same challenging times. Although the protagonists are strangers at the outset, the 1970s see their destinies intertwined as their paths converge...
As readers immerse themselves in this compelling narrative, they will traverse different times and places: soaring through the skies and grounding themselves on the sunlit terrain of the Poltava Region;
exploring the bustling streets of Henichesk;
wandering through the cultural hubs of Kiev and Kharkov;
meandering amidst the grandeur of Moscow and Leningrad;
venturing into Yaroslavl and Gorky;
embarking on captivating journeys across the vast expanses of Siberia and Central Asia. Along the way, they will gain insight into the intricacies of life in a communal Moscow apartment, experience the charm and simplicity of a Ukrainian village, and even accompany an exploration and survey party on their mission. Throughout the course of their lives, the heroes of this tale encounter numerous individuals, spanning the spectrum from “red” to “white,” and even those who remain neutral. Each interaction leaves an indelible mark on the very fabric of their souls. It is imperative to note that this book draws its inspiration from actual historical events, and its characters are firmly rooted in the annals of history.
