Introduction

Early summer of one thousand nine hundred and forty-one.

The sun generously shone on the fields, forests, rivers. Wheat, rye and barley were blooming in the fields.

The first strawberries and honeysuckles were appearing in the forests, and blueberries were ripening in the pine undergrowth. The thrushes sang their flute-like songs, the melodious song of the robin sounded in the undergrowth. The whistle of the oriole and the active singing of the warbler were heard, the ringing trills of goldfinches on the edges of the forests. The first fruits of cherry, plum and apple trees were set. A summer thunderstorm refreshed the air. Enjoying the first days of school holidays, children laughed carefree, swimming in the rivers. Schoolchildren of the final grades were preparing to enter institutes.
