Publisher's Summary

Most books about the Soviet Union focus on politics, food shortages, or lack of democratic freedoms.

This collection of stories portrays everyday experiences of a young girl growing up in the Soviet Union of the 1970s.

Childhood can be a magical and innocent time, oblivious to political regimes and problems. And that's what these 12 stories strive to convey.
