章节摘录

　　For Genia， the decision ultimately came down to Sergey. While her husband admits he was thinking as much about his own future as his sons， for her， "it was 80/20 about Sergey." They formally applied for an exit visa in September 1978. Michael was promptly fired. Genia， who had obtained her job through a relative， had to quit to insulate him from any recrimination. "When he got a whiff of our intentions，" she says， "he said Please get out of there as soon as possible. It had to be a secret from everybody at work， my real reason for leaving. So I lied to all of my coworkers that I was simply leaving my job because I got another job， where I would only have to be at work three days a week and the salary would be higher. I made up —— totally made up —— the name of a place where I was planning to work." There was no other job， of course， and suddenly they found themselves with no income. To get by， Michael translated technical books into English， but it was painstaking work. He also began to teach himself computer programming， having no expectation of getting an academic position if they ever got out. When Genia found temporary work， again lying about her situation， they shared responsibility for looking after Sergey， who stayed at home rather than attend a miserable Soviet pre-school. And then they waited.　　For many Soviet Jews， exit visas never came. But， in May 1979， the Brins were granted papers to leave the U.S.S.R. "We hoped it would happen，" Genia says， "but we were completely surprised by how quickly it did." The timing was fortuitous： They were among the last Jews allowed to leave until the Gorbachev era.
