Born in 1946, just after World War II, Anatoly K. grew up in Almaty, in the Kazakh SSR. In his recording with The Life Chronicles, he shares vivid memories of childhood in post-war Central Asia — from the porcelain toy pistol his uncle brought back from Germany, to the breathtaking sight and smell of bird cherry trees in full bloom.
These are not just personal memories — they are timeless windows into a world that shaped a generation and deserve to be remembered.
