Poisoning reading about youth and persecution: memories of the victims

On Monday, October 28, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. , the district central library Mark Twain Artothek will become the scene of a moving event in Berlin! Grit and Niklas Poppe read from their chopping book, which illuminates the fate of countless young people who were caught in the catch of the Soviet secret service after the cruel Nazi era. Under the title "Discarded, banished, disappearing", the authors immerse themselves deeply into the stories of suffering who were innocently arrested, abducted or murdered in the Gulag.

"It shaped me for life. You will always be in contact with these things until you die," emphasizes a contemporary witness, whose priceless experiences have been incorporated into the book. The shocking fates of men and women who had to suffer for years in specialists from the Soviets are brought to life by unpublished interviews. The authors manage to make the unimaginable tangible and show how basic human dignity and human rights were injured here.
