The book of memories by Leelo Tungal continues the chronicle of the family and the history of the 50s of the 20th century. It is told by a smart little girl from a once happy Soviet family. This is a story that should not be, because in it, in addition to children's laughter and pranks, love and joy, there are non-childish pain and losses, fear and hope, and finally, the duality of life: one’s own and others’. The theme of this book, like the previous book of memoirs by L. Tungal “Comrade Child and Adults,” is an invasion of childhood. This book is an invaluable piece of history and a striking literary event. “Leelo Tungal is an amazing writer and an amazing person,” Boris Tuch wrote about the author of the book of memoirs. “Her productivity is amazing: over 35 years of creative activity, about 80 books. And among them not a single one is weak or boring. Children do not accept falsehood.”
