Tag #125673 - Interview #78561 (Sofi Eshua Danon-Moshe)

It seems to me that the fact I’m Jewish had put its stamp on my development. I was late. The ones who had to promote me, my superiors, were just waiting, slowing things down. And as procrastinating became impossible, they promoted me with a colleague of mine who was lagging behind me in his work so that both of us could be presented. I wasn’t a member of the Party; that was of significance as well. I was conducting a group on Marxism–Leninism. My bosses were always trying to stop it, to put somebody else in my place to be more precise, and I used to tell them, ‘I can take a higher position only if there is no concierge.’ And irrespective of the fact that I wasn’t a member of the Party I became an official representative of Bulgaria in the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance where I suggested a new method of unified microbiology of external environment.
