In Bashkiria for the first time I felt anti-Semitism. When we arrived
there and went for a walk with my brother, neighbor's children ran and
shouted: "Jewish muzzles! Jewish muzzles!" (referring to our noses). But
in Apsheronsk it was even worse: Mum was given a two-room apartment within
the hospital territory as the head of the laboratory. Grandfather and
Grandmother lived with us. But it appeared that one of the doctors of that
hospital liked the apartment very much. And once he got drunk, and with an
axe and tried to break into our apartment at night, shouting: "Get out of
here, Jews! It's my apartment!" He would have hacked us to death if other
doctors hadn't come and calmed him down.
