Pushkin's satellites. Creation. Marriage. Duel. Veresaev V.V.

The fruit of many years of work by V.V. Veresaev, the book “Pushkin's satellites” opened a new genre in Russian literature - the chronicle of characteristics and opinions. In this book there is no interpretation of events from the life of A. S. Pushkin and its description with the help of artistic means, the author “mounts” historical facts in the unique series of portraits of contemporaries of the poet, the history of his time, life and morals of the era. This collection contains portraits of relatives of the wife of A. S. Pushkin and contemporaries of the poet - writers, journalists, artists - who surrounded him during his life in Moscow, in St. Petersburg, while traveling to Arzrum and trips to the east, and were also Nearby in the last hours of his life.
