Live and act

Schkapskaja studied literature in Toulouse , stayed in Paris and published his first poems early on . Leon Trotsky mentioned them in his 1924 work Literature and Revolution . Schkapskaya later worked as a journalist for the Leningrad newspaper Vechernaya krasnaja gaseta ("Red Evening Newspaper"). Her book Eto bylo na samom dele (“That really happened”), published in 1942, is about the atrocities of the German occupiers in the Soviet Union . For the Black Book she prepared the depiction “The Germans in Radsiwilow (Krasnoarmejsk)” about the Ukraine, based on a communication from L. Gechman (Lyusya Gekhman). She is buried in the Vvedenskoye Cemetery in Moscow. Sandra Shaw Bennett obtained an English translation of selected poems.
