That was such a beautiful story, both tragic and triumphant. I was so saddened to read that when at last she traced Vladimir, it was only to discover he had recently died. That was really unfair sad

Thanks Gonegirl.

Made me realise what an old romantic at heart I am. I was sad that they never got to meet each othersad

A wonderful story. The picture of Ivanna as an old woman is beautiful.

What a terrible time they had. Just goes to show that what we all really need is just someone to talk to and care for.

It must have been so hard for those people under Stalin.
