Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was living alone when the radiation came. I was scared, but I had to be strong for my daughter. People got scared and started packing up their things. I also got my clothes, folded them up, and my red badges for honest labor. #2 I have daughters and sons, but I’m not going anywhere. I have lived a full life, and I don’t want anything more. I’ve had enough of everything and I don’t want anything more. #3 I had a neighbor named Zhuchok. I would tell him to warn me if the people came, because I was waiting for them. One night I dreamt I was getting evacuated, and the officer yelled, Lady! We’re going to burn everything down and bury it. Come out! They drove me somewhere, and I never found out where. #4 I visit the cemetery. I sit with my mom and dad, and I sigh a little. I can hear the one and the other. When you’re alone, you can talk to the dead just like you can talk to the living.
