Memoirs of Nikita Khrushchev: Statesman, 1953-1964 byNikita Sergeevich Khrushchev,Sergeĭ Khrushchev,George Shriver,Stephen Shenfield

you are just great! you taught us all !!!!

i may give you another one, my dear

what was so special in mother of Kuzma that Nikita wanted to show her ?

i actually read the memories of Nikita´s son about that episode. he said that  shoes were a bit big for Khrushchev and he lost one in the corridor on his way to rostrum. but he did  not have time to put it back on. so he just took it, entered the room and started speaking, holding that shoe in one hand. so he just used what was in his hand to show the passion

I wonder how many people are walking around with mismatched shoes.

not many - you need to be unique for that )

though it was right on the doorstep and he was in the hurry. besides that, if you know how he looked liked you will understand that taking it on would be certain problem. he had biiiiiig belly )

one time i read a lot about stalin, khrushchev etc. and all that info i learnt changed my initial views

 not that he was the first SU stag?
