Svetlana Iosifovna Alliluyeva (RIP)

Yesterday the Althouse blog had a post on the death of Svetlana Iosifovna Alliluyeva, the only daughter of Joseph Stalin.  I should have posted something, but I did not.  She died 22 November, in Richland Center, Wisconsin, at the age of 85.

Today comes this story from The Chicago Boyz, on one of her teenage relationships, with mention of the tallest building in Moscow, the Lubyanka Prison—"From there you can see all the way to Siberia."

Please be forthright, but please consider that this is not a barracks.
