This book is a document of amazing power. The daughter of Yuri Larin, a prominent revolutionary and comrade-in-arms of Lenin, who later became the wife of one of the leaders of the Soviet state, Nikolai Bukharin, recalls in her memories the harsh times of Stalin’s reign. The book contains memorable portraits of Trotsky, Kamenev, Zinoviev, Pyatakov, Rykov, Tomsky, Ordzhonikidze, Radek, Kalinin, Voroshilov, Yagoda, Yezhov, Beria and other representatives of the highest echelons of power in the Land of Soviets. Moreover, they are all seen both through the eyes of a teenage girl, who had to move in their circle almost from birth, and through the eyes of a mature woman who has gone through slander, the death of a loved one, many years of separation from her son, and the hell of the Gulag. Impressive pages are dedicated to “members of the families of traitors to the Motherland,” including the wives and children of prominent Soviet military leaders Tukhachevsky, Yakir, Uborevich, who shared the fate of the author of this book.
