520 | _aSome years before Mark Mazower's father died, he sat with him and recorded his stories of the things he liked to talk about most: the war, his childhood, history, Russia. This is the remarkable story he uncovered of a family, and the sacrifices and silences that marked a generation and their descendants. It was a family that fate drove into the siege of Stalingrad, the Vilna ghetto, occupied Paris, and even into the ranks of the Wehrmacht. Mark's British father was the lucky one, the son of Russian Jewish emigrants who settled in London after escaping the civil war and revolution. Max, his taciturn grandfather, had started out as a revolutionary socialist and manned the barricades against tsarist troops, but never spoke of it. Max's affectionate and sensitive wife, Frouma, came from a family ravaged by the Great Terror, yet who somehow managed to make its way in Soviet society" | ||
