À propos de ce contenu audio

Unintended for publication, the Diary of a Russian Lady emerged by pure serendipity. Its author, a keen observer since childhood, diligently cataloged her impressions of the world around her, infusing each page with the raw sincerity of her heart. Positioned at the heart of extraordinary events, she became an inadvertent witness to war, social dynamics in Russian society, and the intriguing life in foreign colonies and remote frontiers, including Eastern Siberias Amour River region. While her account doesnt claim to be a comprehensive political or social study, it offers vivid snapshots that culminate into a moving tapestry of places, people, and events. Her innate talent, her deep understanding of Russian and foreign literature, and her clear, engaging style make this diary a compelling read. Some excerpts of her diary, particularly the Fragments of the Diary of a Russian woman in Erzeroum, were previously published in a renowned Russian periodical, and their warm reception motivated the author, Barbara Doukhovskoy, to publish the entire Memories for charitable purposes. Now, this exceptional, original work adds a unique facet to our literature. - Summary by Constantin Sloutchevsky.Copyright Biographies and Memoirs Art Sciences sociales
