In Memoriam: Anastasia Alexandrovna Manstein-Shirinskaya (1912–2009)

Sophia Kuzminykh

“I had long been waiting for Russian citizenship and didn’t want the Soviet one. Then I waited for a passport with a double-headed eagle, not accepting the one with the ‘International’ emblem. And I was granted it at last—what a stubborn old woman I am!” September 5, 2019, marked the 107th birthday of an extraordinary woman—Anastasia Alexandrovna Manstein-Shirinskaya.
