Description

Throughout his life, Pushkin repeatedly tried to keep diaries. As is known, the poet burned his notes, and the diaries that have survived reveal only a small part of his life. Pushkin’s family background, his home circle, portraits of friends and acquaintances, the literary battles of that time, the most important events in Russian history… In short, sometimes terse entries, the fate of the great Russian poet seems sketched out like a dotted line.
