Description
Lydia Korneyevna Chukovskaya (1907–1996) is a Russian poet, prose writer, and critic. This book is her memoirs about her childhood and her father, Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky (1882–1969), the famous children’s writer, poet, and literary figure.
The memoirs refer to the period of life in Kuokkala—a Finnish place where the Chukovsky family lived year-round until the revolution. Next door to their house there was I. E. Repin’s dacha—“Penates.” The Chukovsky and Repin families knew each other well. Many famous people visited both homes—Korolenko, Leonid Andreev, Shalyapin, Akhmatova, Gumilyov, Mayakovsky.
For Chukovskaya’s children, it was a time of free life in nature and happy communication with their father.
