Доктор Вера Роман-газета 1967 №03

Description The story of Boris Polevoy "Doctor Vera" may, perhaps, seem like an adventure story. But it once again confirms the fact long established by Soviet literature that life sometimes creates such situations, and a person in his service to the cause of communism rises to such heights of feat that even a bright creative fantasy will not give birth to. As in "The Tale of a Real Man", the writer tells in this book about a specific, living hero, about real events that took place during the days of the Great Patriotic War. This time, the heroine of the book is a young surgeon, a woman of difficult fate, who was left with the wounded in the occupied city, in the hospital, which they did not have time to evacuate. During the long months of the occupation, she, saving the wounded, leads a dangerous duel with the Gestapo and the occupying authorities, lives a double life, without dropping the honor and dignity of a Soviet person. And she wins along with her comrades-in-arms. And this victory is brought to it by faith in the great and inevitable victory of the forces of peace and socialism over the forces of fascism and war.
