  1. The novel Years of Terror by Anatoly Rybakov is a narrative analysis of the Stalin Purges . In the 11th chapter of the novel, the reader learns something about the history of Panas Lyubchenko's suicide. Anatoly Rybakov writes: "On July 7, 1935, Stalin chaired the plenary session of the Constitutional Commission." (Rybakov, p. 123, 1. Zvo). The author echoes Stalin's thoughts during the session. Stalin considers Lyubchenko present to be unreliable (Rybakov, p. 129, 6. Zvo) and thinks: “Everything that is potentially dangerous must be exterminated.” (Rybakov, p. 129, 17. Zvo) Anatoly Rybakov closes the mentioned chapter of the novel in a documentary tone: "Before Panas Lyubchenko shot himself, he shot his wife to spare her the agony and torture." (Rybakow, p. 136, 2nd Zvu)
