The publication presents an extract from the memoirs of Elizaveta Zhemchuzhnikova, a teacher in the small town of Buzuluk in Samara province, dedicated to the famine of 1921-1922. The author vividly portrays the horrors and miseries of everyday life during that tragic time and shows some strategies that helped her and other locals to survive. The article is devoted to the little-studied issue of the peculiarities of Russian-Serbian economic ties. The author argues that the Russian-Austrian relations in the Balkan region were not only in the nature of political rivalry, but were associated with the general economic interests of Russia in the Danube region.
