70-year Russian occupation of Georgia. The main color is red. The series “Red 70” brings together books written about the Soviet regime, which were created by great Georgian writers and critics during and after the Soviet era. The aim of the series is to remind some readers with reliable, epoch-making publications, and to tell, teach and make the new generation understand the scale of cruelty, terror and repression that the 70 years of our country’s recent history have witnessed, and how all this has reflected on the development of our statehood, culture and science. Geronti Kikodze’s “Notes of a Contemporary” was written in Soviet Georgia. This book is noteworthy, first of all, because of this fact, as a contemporary description of the bloody era of the Soviet Union. The great Georgian critic tells us about the country’s almost 40-year period – with objectivity and chronology. He tells us about the independent Republic of Georgia, about the lost freedom, about the creators of the Great Terror and those repressed; he writes about such great names who died under the Stalinist regime as: Mikheil Javakhishvili, Dimitri Shevardnadze, Evgeni Mikeladze, Paolo Iashvili, Titian Tabidze, Nikolo Mitsishvili... This is a book about the many years of bloody chronicle of astonishing cruelty, absurdity and injustice. The critic finished work on it on March 12, 1954.
