Sonya, leave! Sophia is fat: the look of men and women. Basinsky P.

The wife of Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy Sofya Andreevna (1844-1919), during her husband’s life, became an equally legendary person than himself. Newspapers wrote about her, she was shot by the pioneer of Russian cinema Alexander Drankov, her image was captured in the first feature films about the life of the Great Lion. And today her figure attracts biographers, filmmakers and theatrical figures. She lived with Tolstoy for almost half a century, gave birth to thirteen children, was his faithful friend and literary assistant. But it was precisely because of the conflict with his wife Tolstoy in 1910 he fled from Yasnaya Polyana. The writer and journalist, laureate of the Big Book Prize, Pavel Basinsky, decided to write a book about Sofya Tolstoy in an unusual format-online dialics with a poet and a prose writer from St. Petersburg Ekaterina Barbanyaga. Two glances are men and women. Two points of view on the fate of the great wife of the great writer.

The application publishes the little -known texts of S. A. Tolstoy and the essays about her Vlas Doroshevich and Maxim Gorky.
