Diary of a Russian student. Rakhmanova A.

The frank and dramatic diary trilogy Ali Rakhmanova (the pseudonym Galina Dureagina von Hoyer) has never been published in Russian. The manuscripts, miraculously taken to Austria even before the forced emigration, were later translated by the husband of Galina Dureagina - Arnulf von Hoyer - in German and published in Austria in 1931. Books were with great interest by readers in dozens of countries.

“The Diary of a Russian Student”-the first book of a diary trilogy-covers the period of 1916-1920. In it, the reader meets a heroine who will live in revolutionary Russia. The young girl in her diaries responds to significant events taking place in her family, in a circle of close communication, in the city, in Russia: shock from the death of her friend, hot student meetings, the first arrests, fear for relatives, the cruelty of the new regime, hunger and hunger The uncertainty of the future.
