Escape
Well, I had to get ouf there. It was the communism, you know? It seem to me that this term,
which defined my life, is harder and harder to explain in these days. The explanation found on
Wikipedia doesn't look like it would be something so terrible that one
would have to leave everything behind risking life to get away. I can assure the reader, yes, it was so terrible and
maybe even worse.
Black Book of Communism puts the
number of Cold War victims at 100 million lives. I have a reason to believe that the number was much larger.
