Description
The Ardys audio studio presents your attention the memoirs of the Marquis de Custine, performed by Dmitry Bykov.
French traveler and writer Astolphe de Custine, going to Russia in 1839 as a convinced supporter of the monarchical form of government, returned to Europe as a liberal. The life of the imperial court and the streets—both of the two capitals and of the provinces—all of this and much more can be found in Custine’s fascinatingly written and, in many ways, controversial memoirs. “Without a doubt, it is the most entertaining and intelligent book written about Russia by a foreigner,” wrote A. I. Herzen in 1843.
The audiobook ends with Dmitry Bykov’s story about what he read.
