ON THE LAND OF DISPOSED GRANDFATHERS
The Popadeikin family was repressed twice in the 1930s: first for being kulaks, then for being conspirators. As a result, out of seven men in the family, only three were saved: one was a child, the second was hidden, the third was thanks to the scars received in his youth... Three quarters of a century later, one of the descendants of the executed peasants - Pyotr Popadeikin - will buy the land where the house stood his great-grandfather, where the poplars he planted still grow.
