Letter sent from: Village of Lishchynivka, Kobeliaky raion, Poltava oblast
Letter describes events in 1932-1933 in: unspecified location, likely the same as the mailing address Village of Lishchynivka, Kobeliaky raion, Kharkiv oblast
Current location name: Village of Lishchynivka, Kobeliaky raion, Poltava oblast
A very general account, without many specifics. Lymar insists that local activists, communists and search brigades, rather than Stalin, were to blame for the inhumane grain requisitioning and dekurkulization. She mentions a woman, a head of the kolhosp, who tortured people and whose husband was a torturer too but insists that such bad memories should be left in the past. “Why bring up the past” she asks.
Lymar seems to appreciate the relative abundance of the Brezhnev era more than the scarcity of perestroika.
