Dzerzhinsky

This audiobook presented by the “Ardis” studio is dedicated to a person whose life and activities evoke conflicting feelings among today’s generations. An uncompromising fighter against counterrevolution, the creator of the terrifying, infamous Cheka (the very institution that many feared), the man tasked with returning a vast number of homeless children to normal life—someone whose name was carried by one of the symbols of our country’s Soviet past, the F.E.D. camera—Felix Edmundovich Dzerzhinsky. The audiobook includes L. Mlechin’s book devoted to F. Dzerzhinsky, as well as his autobiography and diary entries.
