You Will Endure. You Will Hold Out. You Will Survive…

This book is a collection of poetry and prose by Olga Berggolts — a renowned Soviet poet and writer whose work is intimately tied to the Siege of Leningrad during the Great Patriotic War. Through these pieces, the author captures the tragic events of the blockade, the courage and fortitude of the city’s inhabitants, and her own firsthand experience of enduring harrowing trials. The title is drawn from Berggolts’s famous verse, which became a symbol of the unyielding spirit of the besieged city.
