My grandfather was
not a fanatic, but he was a religious man. In Kiev they did not have a flat
of their own, they rented a room at 11, Borisoglebskaya. I remember
grandfather praying every morning. He put on his talit and those boxes on
ropes, I forgot their names (Editor's note: tefillin). He also wore a
yarmulke. My grandmother wore an artificial braid with a black lace cap to
keep her head always covered according to the Jewish religious tradition.
