Book excerpt: The almost unbelievable, but true story of a teen-age boy's survival and triumph over hardship in a Russian slave labor camp -- ending in a breathtaking escape -- DONBAS has proven appeal for middle- and high school students and has been taught in schools. It's a book that holds kids (and adults) to the last page and gives them a new awareness and appreciation of what they've got -- and what life might one day ask of them. It's a book that puts you in its author's tattered shoes, makes you feel his cold, hunger, and pain, his homesickness and determination to live, and ask yourself: Would I survive?? “Riveting suspense . . . Once started I could not stop, once done could not forget it. Ever.” ~ The Berkshire Eagle “Simply written, direct and extraordinarily moving . . . an unassuming statement of deep affirmation.” ~ The New York Times Book Review “Excellent portrayal of a youth's indomitable spirit and will to survive.” ~ Library Journal

Book excerpt: ”Escape from Siberia” is a story set in contemporary Russia at the time of the unsuccessful attempt to remove Gorbachev from power by the reactionary forces against glasnost and perestroika. The novel’s main characters are an American geologist, a beautiful Russian woman and a Russian Colonel.

Book Synopsis I Speak for the Silent Prisoners of the Soviets by : Vladimir Vi︠a︡cheslavovich Chernavin

This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I tell my own story because I believe that only in this way can I discharge the moral obligation which a kindly Fate imposed upon me in helping me to escape from the Soviet Terror the duty to speak for those whose voices cannot be heard.In silence they are sent away as convicts to the concentration camps; in silence they suffer torture and go to meet their death from Soviet bullets.Nothing is invented in this book and I stand back of every statement I have made. In a few instances to protect others I have been compelled to conceal the identity of certain people, but I have indicated that fact in each specific case. All those whom I describe are real persons and everything is true to the minutest detail.This is a narrative of what befell a Russian scientist under the Soviet regime. More than that, it is the story of many, if not most, people of education in the U.S.S.R. today.As you read, please remember that I speak of myself only because it enables me to tell the story of others. Remember, also, that, in the Soviet Union, innocent people are still being tried for "wrecking" and that intelligent men are still being forced by torture to "confess" to crimes which they never committed.Remember, too, that thousands of Russian men and women of education are still languishing in the filthy cells of the GPU prisons and in the cold barracks of the concentration camps, poorly clad and starving, breaking with exhaustion under the hardships of inhuman slavery."Vladimir V. TchernavinVladimir Vyacheslavovich Tchernavin (alternative transliteration: Chernavin) (1887-1949) was a Russian-born ichthyologist who became famous as one of the first and few prisoners of the Soviet Gulag system who managed to escape abroad.
Download or read book Escape! written by Robert M. Hoffman and published by . This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RESCUE MISSION MOSCOW Imagine this scenario: you're an American who's been thrust into the heart of the Soviet Union during the Cold War where the KGB controls everything. International travel is closed except to an elite few and there is practically no way of contacting home—even short-wave radio is jammed. Food is scarce and material possessions are almost nonexistent. Such was the case for young scientist, Robert Hoffman. There were almost no supplies, poor and broken-down equipment and manuals he could hardly understand. Despite all of these disadvantages, he found solace with the scientists in Moscow and found a band of men and women who could have competed with the best in the world. The brightest young star of the Moscow scientific community was a young man named Alex Varshavsky, who had dreamed for many years of escaping the prison that was the Soviet Union. After befriending Alex, Hoffman vowed to get him out of the country. But, was he smart enough to concoct an escape plan that could be hidden from the KGB? Maybe—but for how long?

Book Synopsis Fool's Circle by : Jan H. Zacharewicz
Download or read book Fool's Circle written by Jan H. Zacharewicz and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of my life that began to turn a full circle at the age of sixty-nine. It is the story of one who made many mistakes, but never as foolish as the last one. It is the story that begins from the first memories of my childhood, the outbreak of World War II. It relives the misery of the Soviet deportation in 1940, the horrors of the Soviet corrective labour camp in the Archangel region, the journey through the Soviet Union to Uzbekistan and Iran. After that, the story deals with my life in the Polish Children's Home in Oudtshoorn. Then I go on to my life in Pietermaritzburg, the seminary days and nearly six years of studies in Rome. Subsequently, I scrutinize my priestly life, my decision to leave the priesthood, my marriage of twenty-five years and the trauma of my wife's death that almost drowned me in the bog of loneliness. I lament the subsequent attempt to escape from loneliness and the one-day second marriage, which ended in a divorce seven months later. I end my story with a reflection on the closure of my life as “a circle from childhood to childhood” at the age of eighty.
Book Synopsis Escape into Danger by : Sophia Orlosvky Williams
Download or read book Escape into Danger written by Sophia Orlosvky Williams and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This WWII memoir tells the remarkable story of a Ukrainian girl’s perilous adventures and coming of age amid the chaos of war. Born in Kiev to a Catholic mother and a Jewish father, Sophia Williams chose to be identified as Jewish when she became eligible for a Soviet passport at age sixteen. She had no way of realizing the life-changing consequences of her decision. When Germany invaded Russia the following year, Sophia left Kiev and embarked on daring journey into Russia—surviving floods, dodging fires and bombs, and falling in love. After reaching Stalingrad, Sophia found herself stranded in a Nazi-occupied town. She was safely employed by a sympathetic German officer until a local girl recognized her as a Jew. Within days, Sophia’s boss spirited her to safety with his family in Poland. Soon, though, Sophia was on the run again, this time to Nazi Germany, where she somehow escaped detection through the rest of the war. Her story of survival continues into the postwar years, through starting a family and business with a German soldier. But when her marriage deteriorated, even divorce was not enough to keep her vindictive and violent husband away. Throughout this difficult life, Sophia maintained the grit, charm, and optimism that saved her time and again as she made her “escape into danger.”
