Summary
My Russian Family is a three generation family saga about nine family members, involving love, faith, fidelity, and physic phenomena, as you explore the mysterious world of Mother Russia. Social, political, and historical events were included as a backdrop to this easy reading people history of Russia. The raw reality of life, without the filter of Cold War propaganda, is fascinating as Russian people lived and survived in their everyday life. These stories include Lilias mother, who was a daughter of nobility, and Lilias father, who was a peasant that rose in the ranks to Red Army Intelligence and then to the KGB, where he retired as a Lieutenant Colonel. There are new perspectives of Stalinism, Soviet Power, the Gulag Archipelago, and the KGB, as well as a singular view of historical events, including World War II.
