I remember the famine in 1932-33 11. I can’t imagine how we survived: probably people were more sympathetic and supported each other then. I remember my father bringing some cereals and flour from his clients in villages. The situation was also hard in villages, but they at least had some vegetables gardens where they could grow something. Mama baked bread to sell it at the market and we only could have some leftovers. Villagers occasionally paid my father for his work with potatoes an other vegetables. We were given a bun and some soup at school. Fortunately our family survived while many other people died in Bershad.
