You are holding in your hands the first book of the two-volume “History of Kiev. Soviet Kiev (1919-1991)", where you will not find a listing of the successes and victories achieved, but you will read about Kiev in 1919-1945, about the state that no longer exists, and most importantly, about the people of Kiev who left their mark on the history of the City, their fates, often tragic. The twentieth century struck Ukraine with chilling events. But Viktor Kirkevich convinces that the history of Ukraine and Kiev is not only shelling of residential areas and churches, pogroms and extermination of intelligentsia, closure and demolition of churches, prohibition of manifestation of national identity, Holodomor, massive unjustified arrests and executions, burning Khreshchatyk, Babii Yar.
