Albert Parry, born 1901, Rostov-on-Don, wrote this of the summers of his childhood,

"There were sultry days of brassy sun, but also cool evenings on the balconies facing the Don River, with the soft glow of charcoal in the samovar, with the ripe cherries crushed by your spoon against the bottom and sides of your glass of scalding tea."
