Дети Кремля

Description

In past times, the children of rulers were princesses and princes. The 20th century changed everything. `Children of the Kremlin` - a continuation of the book `Kremlin Wives` - a documentary and journalistic study that reveals many secrets of past decades. This book lifts the veil over some obscure pages in the history of Vladimir Ulyanov-Lenin's family. It tells about the fate of the children of ʻenemies of the people` Kamenev and Gamarnik. The children of Stalin, Voroshilov, Kaganovich, Beria, Mikoyan, Budyonny, Khrushchev and many others appear in the book. Who are the modern princesses and princes? Who didn't they become? What did the Kremlin give them and what did it take away from them? How did they differ from ordinary children of the country, what was common between them, and can not all of them together be called the Kremlin children, because what happened behind the red walls concerned every person? The book answers these and many other questions. It has many features of the Kremlin life of different years. It also contains the story of the children and grandchildren of the writer Maxim Gorky, who in the last years of his life was closely associated with the Soviet regime. The book `Children of the Kremlin` is richly illustrated with photographs from family archives.
