Mira Mlotok with her father, Mark Mlotok

I, Mira Markovna Mlotok, with my father, Mark Moiseyevich Mlotok, when my father came to take my mother from Lubny. The photo was made in Lubny in 1939.
When my father learned that I entered musical college without anybody's help, he found me and he said he liked me very much. He realized his mistake and decided to help me become a real urban girl. He took me to the central supermarket and bought me a lot of clothes and shoes. I felt equal to other students of my college.
My father was a kind man, very gentle and honest. But he could easily be influenced. That woman, Gusta, could cause him to forget everything, including his family. But when she died, father came back from Siberia, where he worked, and asked my mother to reconcile with him. She agreed to go and live and work with him in Siberia.
