Shtakser reviewed "Nu i nechistʹ" by A. I︠U︡ Vatlin (Istorii︠a︡ stalinizma)
Review of '"Nu i nechistʹ"' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
This book is based on the secret police files and deals with issues these files might help us with - the life of the immigrants in Germany before the immigration (especially interesting for these who were politically active and therefore ended up in Soviet Union), the reasons for immigration, daily life of immigrants from Germany in Soviet Union, dealings with the German embassy on the one hand and the Komintern on another, and of course the arrests, the executions, the camps, and the forced expulsions to Nazi Germany.
