A unique exhibition is currently on display at the National
Archive of Kazakhstan, featuring letters from the front. Among these valuable
documents are a letter from Bauyrzhan Momyshuly to wartime writer Malik
Gabdullin, as well as the diary and poems of poet and war veteran Muzafar
Alimbayev. The yellowed pages reveal their emotions, inner experiences, longing
for their parents, and hope for the future. According to experts, these handwritten
wartime documents serve as a silent message to the younger generation about the
importance of peace and harmony. Special care is taken to preserve such
valuable materials.
«Letters and documents from the war years are carefully preserved
under controlled temperature conditions in our specialized storage facilities.
These yellowed sheets of paper have literally absorbed the scent and imprint of
war, as they were written during that time. We present these materials to the
younger generation and share the stories behind them,» noted Assiya
Kerimtayeva, Head of the Department for work with documents of personal origin
at the National Archive of Kazakhstan.
