Rachel.

The fate of the biblical Rachel seems a beautiful fairy tale against the backdrop of what the Soviet Rachel had to endure, who could not even be called by that name because it meant one thing - to become an... outcast. The story of the life of the real Raisa Aronovna Kleinman is only occasionally interspersed with the author's fiction, for even the most sophisticated writer's imagination could not have invented all that humanity faced in the 20th century. This woman experienced almost all the nightmares of the past century in reality: war, the struggle against "rootless cosmopolitanism", numerous exiles, and the entire drama of German-Jewish relations. Rachel's story is an encyclopedia of courage, countless tragedies, and deprivations of one Soviet family, and together with it, a brief chronicle of a terrible but unforgettable era.
