	Svetlana Samchenko. The "Askold" cruiser in the Gallipoli battle
		The main trick for "Askold" to avoid enemy’s shells would be prompt, sharp maneuvers and permanent change of her position, but in the narrows of Dardanelles all that could become self-destructive: despite the regular trawling operations, the waters of the Narrows were merely teemed with mines.
		The deck command had to frighten off the plane with the rifle fire for there was no AA artillery on "Askold" - she had been built prior to the beginning of the battle aircraft era.
		It was similar to a game with death, but the battle experience of the "Askold" crew and the phenomenal luck accompanying this wonderful ship since the first days of service saved her from heavy damage.

	Askold Cruiser History and Deployment
		After an intense battle the Askold managed to break through the Japanese blockade and make it to the relative safety of Shanghai where it was disarmed for the duration of the war.
		At the close of the British intervention the Askold was returned to the Bolsheviks where it lay rusting in port until she was sent to Germany in 1922 to be scrapped.
		We believe that the Askold and ships of its class replaced older Russian cruisers such as the Admiral Kornilov and Pamiat-Azova which were both made in the late 1880's.

		The narrator of Askold Melnyczuk's masterful novel, a successful physician, thinks that to a large extent he has escaped the past - the troubled lives of his Ukranian immigrant friends - and become successfully assimilated into the American dream of upward mobility.
		We are each a storehouse of the accumulative pain that we have experienced, handed down to us by our parents and other significants -- how we recognize, view and process that pain draws the boundaries of the way in which we live our lives.
		Some people have a tougher time dealing with their past than others -- and when, as in the case of Nick Blud, the narrator of Askold Melnyczuk's dark, rich and extremely moving novel, that pain is multiplied by the suffering endured by his parents and grandparents, it's an almost insurmountable task.
