"Yakov Dzhugashvili (b. 1907), the eldest, was the only one whose mother shared Stalin's Georgian background. After her death, he was raised by relatives away from his father. A gentle, introverted soul, he longed for a normal life and for his father's approval. Instead, he received only nasty gossip"
