abstract
  • Luisa Hozzel was a clerk in Fulda, in American zone of West Germany in the years between World Wars II and III. She lived with her husband, Gustav, a printer and a veteran of World War II. When the Soviet Union invaded Fulda in February 1951, Gustav joined the emergency militia and was forced to retreat west with the American forces. Luisa hid Gustav's medals, and did her best to keep her head down. Unfortunately, her best was not good enough. In June 1951, the Soviet MGB, aware that Gustav was fighting in the west, took Luisa into custody as a counter-revolutionary. She and several other women, including Trudl Bachman, the wife of Gustav's employer Max Bachman, were placed on a train and sent to a gulag in the east. She wound up somewhere in Siberia. She and the other women prisoners were promptly stripped, bathed, and shaved by male guards. Her barber touched inappropriately while he trimmed her pubic hair, and suggested that she needed someone to look out for her. Then she was assigned a uniform and number, and soon fell into a routine in the camp over the course of the remainder of the summer: walk up at 0530, breakfast in the form of gruel, a visit to the latrine, and then work. She and Trudl Bachman were assigned to cut down trees with a two-person saw. This article is a stub because the work is part of a larger, as-of-yet incomplete series.
