ADASINSKAIA

St Petersburg

Adasinskaia, Galina Antonovna
The main interest of the archive is a long unpublished memoir of the Viatlag labour camp by I.L. Iurkevich, a fellow-prisoner and life-long friend of Galina Adasinskaia. Born in 1907, Iurkevich was arrested three times: in 1926, in 1938, and in 1943, when he was a prisoner in the Viatlag camp. (In her first interview Galina gives a vivid description of Iurkevich and other friends in the Viatlag camp.) The archive also contains a memoir by Galina which gives further details about her arrest and the years she spent in the Viatlag camp.
