When she was just 5 years old, Pelaheia Tovkach became a witness of the Holodomor, the genocidal famine of the Ukrainian nation, when millions of Ukrainians were killed by starvation in less than two years. Curious from an early age, today the 93-year-old woman tells in detail and with her own assessments of those events the history of her village during its destruction by the communist totalitarian regime through the policy of collectivization, dekulakization, and the Holodomor of 1932-1933.
