The decade of the 1930s is full of contradictions. Stakhanovite pioneers and starving peasants, Magnitka builders and family members of "traitors to the motherland," courageous aviators and engineers forced into sharashkas (labor camps) march side by side toward the promised bright future. The transition from the joys of life to the rations of a prison camp takes very little time. The number of ego documents grows, but they change tone, lose their relevance, and become less revealing. At the same time, minutes of meetings and interrogations, press denunciations, and informant reports proliferate. The authors of the book offer a look at the events of those years through the eyes of people from all walks of life. However, what happened to them in the 1930s pales in comparison to what lies ahead. There is a terrible war out there, but they don't know it yet.
