Biography
Father - leader of the Menshevik movement , secretary G.V. Plekhanova Cederbaum, Fedor Isaevich, mother - Khorodchinskaya, Ida Efimovna. Victor Fedorovich was born in 1913 in Vyborg. Before the revolution, his family lived in political emigration in Italy, after which she returned to Petrograd. After returning, the father decided to leave his son the name of his mother.
He was first arrested on October 5, 1925 when he was in the ninth grade of labor school No. 17. He was sentenced to 3 years for issuing a handwritten leaflet, the text of which called "boldly open all the mistakes of the party apparatus" (according to other sources, to 5 [2] ) on charges of organizing and leading a youth counter-revolutionary group. He served his term in the Solovetsky camp . At the request of G.V. Plekhanov, E.P. Peshkova and P.G. Smidovich, the term was reduced to 2 years (according to other sources, up to 3 years). During his imprisonment in Leningrad, his father was arrested and sentenced to 10 years.
In 1927 he returned from prison and entered the Leningrad Metallurgical Institute . At this time, he composed poems, often of a political content and criticism of power. As a result, on December 4, 1932, he was arrested a second time as "the ideologist and leader of the youth counter-revolutionary organization of the Mensheviks" and sentenced to five years by the OGPU board. He was re-sent to the Solovetsky camp . During his detention on Solovki, he was kept separately from everyone. The reason for this exclusivity was the requirement to isolate it (to suppress the possibility of counter-revolutionary activity among prisoners). In prison, because of the constant restriction of his regime, he organized strikes, hunger strikes, and wrote poetry. Having contracted tuberculosis , he sought transfer to the mainland. As a result, he was transferred to the Yaroslavl political isolator, then to the Chelyabinsk prison. In 1937, his father would be arrested and shot again for a meeting with him, and after a while, he himself would be sentenced to death under article 58 . Rehabilitated in 1989. In 2018, in St. Petersburg, at the house number 24 on Tchaikovsky Street, he received the sign of the Last Address .
