Fragments of interview by Vladyslav Paskalenko, 1993

—Did the relationships in the family change during the kolhosp time?

Maryna Levkivna: Why would they? A father understood his son, and the reverse. Nowadays no one pays attention to anyone. People are so vexed now, and no one needs anyone.

—What was the name of the neighborhood [kutok] where you were born?

Maryna Levkivna: This was considered Zabaryshchyna, and I was born in Berehovshchyna [bereh in Ukrainian translates as “the bank”]. My mother lived near the bank.

—What other neighborhoods were there in your village?

Maryna Levkivna: Zabarivshchyna, Shutodolyna, Boikovshchyna, and Paikovshchyna.
