For the first time, a complete story is published about Leonid Khrushchev, the eldest son of the first secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Nikita Sergeyevich Khrushchev and the grandfather of the author of this book. Partially, the memoirs, partially historical investigation, the book describes the difficult relationship between the son and father of the Khrushchev, tells of the life and death of Leonid and exposes the mythology surrounding his name. The author’s investigation is not just the restoration of the events of the life of the youngest Khrushchev, it is an analysis of why the negative image of the Khrushchev has long and stubbornly holds in the Russian mind. Nina Khrushcheva emotionally and frankly sets out the story of the struggle of her family for the debunking of the “version” about Leonid’s betrayal during the Great Patriotic War - from a random children"s meeting with the former Stalinist Molotov to the Strasbourg Human Rights Court - and shows how the “gulag in the head” before still affects the way of thinking and the value choice of Russians
