New Confessors of Russia, Volume I: Nizhny-Novgorod Province
by Archimandrite Damascene (Orlovsky)
“Right after the communist revolution in Russia, the emigré press abounded with firsthand accounts of communist oppression. However, due to political fear, and psychological support in the West of socialistic dreams and aspirations, most of the texts were silenced. [...]Nevertheless, a great number of reports and eyewitness accounts have survived the communist years. Today, these are being gradually brought to light and anthologized, together with information from newly opened KGB files. [...]This volume is regional, dealing with the city of Nizhny-Novgorod and the surrounding area, or as it also called, Nizhegorod Province.” —“Introduction”
