I have an interesting exercise for those of you who may be good at cracking codes... As seen on this thread earlier, Olga occasionally wrote in code in her diaries, and apparently this code has been cracked, but as far as I know only certain letters of the code have been published, not all.
Here I have an excerpt from her 1915 diary written in this code, and would like to be able to include what it says in the book before it goes to press. If someone here is able to do it, you will get a honorable acknowledgement as well as a free copy of the book. If you don't know Cyrillic, it's not a problem, if you can figure out which letter is which, I can try to do the rest. Here is goes: the cracked code words are on top, while the writing on the bottom is what I need to crack and figure out what she wrote. Not all the letters line up on top image, but you have to count them to see what corresponds to what.
This is Olga's own handwriting, directly from her diary, and I am pretty sure she is talking about one of her love interests, possibly Pavel Voronov... Give it a shot. Thanks!
