Anxious Memory

This book is about 38 years of my life in the USSR. And if you do not delve into the details - the normal life of an ordinary person. I grew up in the difficult post-war years in a good family. Graduated from school. Became a doctor. Was in the army. I worked as an ambulance doctor in my beautiful St. Petersburg. I was a doctor on ships of the merchant marine. I taught. And I completed my practice in Russia as a family doctor. But ... I lived in the country in which 800 years of tyranny ruled. And it changes so much everything I said above that to call it a normal life is to lie. Russians do not understand the word freedom. 800 years of personal suppression raised a nation of potencial slaves. It has changed the awareness of oneself as a person. It has taken away faith. And today it does not bring happiness. This is what my book is about.
