Baso's Family Happiness Was Limited

Stallin was born into a middle class family in Gory, Georgia. His father's shoemaking business did well enough for him to hire apprentices and eventually ten employees. For a while, the family lived well. As an adult, he ruefully admitted, i'm not the son of a worker. And that was like, if only we'd lived badly, right? I wish, i wish i'd had harder times.
