The memoirs of the lawyer, journalist, and later economist V.L. Zhitomirsky (1884-1960) are dedicated to the life of his family in the small district town of Cherkassy in the Kyiv province in the late 19th – early 20th centuries. The lifestyle of a strictly religious family living within the Jewish Pale of Settlement, customs, holidays that were the unwritten basis of family life, the arrangement of the house and yard, the education of children, trade, charity and mutual assistance of residents are described on the pages of the book. The expressive story of the events of 1917-1920 reflects the turbulent history of those years: the onset of political freedoms in February 1917, work in the new democratic authorities, which was cut short with the advent of the Hetmanate, the occupation of Cherkassy by German troops, pogroms, arrest, prison and the threat of execution by Denikin's army. The memoirs of V.L. Zhitomirsky are published for the first time.
