MEMORY FOR THE FUTURE, Book II
Dear friend, you're holding in your hands a little different poetic book.

This book - the suffering and pain, which shall remain in the wounded soul of every man who went through hell fascist slavery. It attempts - fixed in poetic form of human suffering experienced during the rule of W Reich.

The authors of poetry - people who in his younger years in captivity have been deprived of all: children, the right to learn, to love, to rest, to do what, to freely choose their future.

Their lyrical works - skipped through the heart and penetrated deep sorrow yearning for his mother in his native home, worrying about how hard it was to leave his native land. Joyless youth years spent in captivity, severe exhausting slave labor, hunger, cold, moral and physical abuse.

Many verses substituted in this book were written in captivity and in the hard postwar years.
The authors of some of them are children of former slaves.
Not all poems perfect of literary terms, but their value is that they try to pass a very hard experience and the associated complex human emotions.

This "V'yaznyarskiy Odyssey", in essence, means of poetic words reproduced methods and scope of Hitler's Nazi enslavement of our people.
