Description

Lilianna Lunguiná's Versión Original is a unique and captivating account of life under Soviet rule. This memoir offers an intimate look at the daily lives of those living in Russia during this period, revealing both its triumphs and challenges. Born in 1920 to a Jewish family, Lunguiná's early years were spent between France, Palestine, and Germany before her family returned to the Soviet Union when she was just thirteen. This pivotal moment marked the beginning of a new chapter in her life, one that would be shaped by the increasingly paranoid regime. As she grew older, Lunguiná became embroiled with intellectual circles, only to see many close friends and acquaintances fall victim to brutal purges and persecution. Through her experiences, Lunguiná emerged as a respected translator of Russian literature, working with notable authors such as Knut Hamsun, August Strindberg, and Boris Vian. Her story is one of resilience and determination, offering a fascinating glimpse into the lives of those who lived through this tumultuous period in Soviet history.
