Alexandra Yakovlevna Brushtein began to write an autobiographical trilogy "The road goes to the distance ..." in 1956. The 72 -year -old, deaf and almost blind, Brushtein wrote a book, whose heroine she herself was, but noging.
Sasha lives in Vilna (now Vilnius) with mom and dad, cook, bonna and teachers and is preparing to enter the Institute of noble girls - this book begins. With encyclopedic accuracy, almost 50 years, Brushtein recreates a city that has to survive two world wars and the Holocaust. This accuracy concerns not only the details of life, but also the experiences of people of the late 19th century, who have already felt the approach of changes - political, social, technical.
All events described in the book are reliable, each character - regardless of its place and weight in the book - has a real prototype, whose name and surname is in most cases. This allowed Maria Gel -Fund1 - the author of the comments - to find in the archives not only confirmation of the existence of a person, but also to trace his story, to find out how he lived before, during and after the events described in the book.
The book that you hold in your hands is the commented edition of the story, which gave the name of the entire trilogy and reveals it. The next two novels - "at dawn hour" and "spring" - are preparing for the publication next year.
For secondary school age
