In 1944 I returned to Leningrad from evacuation. People, who lived in the city during the blockade [14], warmed their houses using material at hand. They used everything: books, furniture, etc. But that lath fence in our court yard remained safe as it was before the war. Only one part of it was broken – by me. Nobody touched it, though it was made of wood and could have been used for heating.
