Tag #153313 - Interview #78562 (Roza Levenberg)

I got to Kzyl-Orda on  November 7. There was a celebration  for the liberation of Kiev. We danced and enjoyed ourselves. As for me, I danced a little and then, all of a sudden, I felt unwell. I didn’t know what was the matter – but, at that very moment, my  mother was dying. I didn’t know anything; the family didn’t want to let me know. Mamma was afraid that I would quit the Institute and would have no education.  Three months later, I went to Frunze and only then learned that mamma had died. I went to Kzyl-Orda with my Dad to go back to Kiev together. But I was not allowed to take him to Kiev. He stayed in Kzyl-Orda, and I went back to Kiev along with the University.
