после Педагогической поэмы, в которой удивительно много взросления, детства, лета, хохота и надежды, Флаги на башнях читать страшно - схема на схеме, бюст Сталина там такой же живой персонаж, как и остальные. и концовка с флагами на кровавом небе очень жуткая, как весь декабрь 1934.
в который раз думаю о том, что плодотворной счастливой старости для Антона Семёновича Макаренко судьбой и историей приготовлено не было и не могло быть и он очень хорошо это понимал.

Ein wichtiges Buch meiner Jugend. Hm, Erziehung durch Arbeit. Später verstand ich, warum es auch das Lieblingsbuch meines (Nazi)Opas war und ihm als Leitfaden seiner Arbeit in einem DDR- Jugendwerkhof diente. Für ein abgerundetes Urteil müsste ich es heute noch einmal lesen...

Esta bien, pero para mi es mejor el Poema Pedagógico, la perspectiva cambia bastante cuando es desde la vista del niño)

Baştan sona sürükleyici, düşmanın hemen içinde olduğunu unutturmayan isimleri karıştırma olasığı yüksek bir kitap :)
