  I had passed the long hours by the window watching thefall.Ithough as the cme of themanyyears Ihad spent teachinghm.But on on of myewo years later I heard,only by accident,that the woman haddied some months after the operation,from a post-operativenfection in her brain.His silence over this,and the way in whichhe had not sought my advice when she fell ill after the surgerymade me furious and I came close to telling him that I wouldnever return to Ukraine,but eventually I thought better of it.Iwas told later that he had thought I would refuse to come backto Ukraine if he did tell me,which was,of course,the completeopposite of the truth and showed how little he understood me.It reminded me of the long delays before the Soviet governmentadmitted to the catastrophe at Chernobyl.
