Vasili Dzemyanovich: Synagogues after the War
Categories: Residence and weekdays, Vasili Dzemyanovich
Two thirds of the population were the Jews. Look at the synagogue: a woman synagogue, a man synagogue, a woman school. All these three buildings were located in one place. Here they are. All three are standing there. The school doesn’t have windows – all are broken. Our artists have rotten our synagogue: they organized a club their and slated the building, they roofed it with cemented sheets, you know what I'm saying? It has dropped down and the roof began to drip until the ceilings fell down. Here's. What a large beautiful building. After the war during the season when the crops were gathered, all grain had been stored there, they carried grain in bags and so on and so forth. We were small and they made us go there and sweep it to prevent the fire. Because the grain was not dried well. Here's. We put something on our shoes to take more grain in them and ran home to feed the chickens and came back there again.
