, i feel sorry... for those who haven’t read it, i highly recommend reading the memoir of ivan alekseevich buninlly bunin with the same topic, whether he was a fat count, but he never told. about his father, for bunin it was very strange, how can a count, how can a russian aristocrat not be proud of his pedigree, not talk about his ancestors, because well, this is such an obligatory part. biography and history of every russian nobleman. in fact, the story of the origin of alexei tolstoy, the appearance of his light, it is worthy of a separate novel. this means that his father, whose name was nikolai alexandrovich tolstoy, was really count, i must say that everyone is fat, all the countess are all relatives. he was a military man, but very reckless, with such hooligan behavior that for all his tricks in... he was kicked out of the guard, forbidden to live in st. petersburg, and he went to his homeland, that is, to the volga, to his hometown of samara, and there in in samara, this violent landowner met a girl whose last name was turgeneva, she was not in any kindred relationship with ivan sergeevi

alekseevich bunin, in that very book, damned days, ivan alekseevich wrote, especially for us: our childrent be able to even imagine that russia, where we once upon a time, that is, yesterday we lived, which we did not appreciate, did not understand, wealth, happiness. god forbid that we, our generation or the future generation, bitterly repeat the same words to the generation of our descendants. how do such changes occur in the destinies of nations? i will tell you my opinion as a church person. their life events, god's providence, but if the people do not deviate from their intentions, the lord steps aside and gives according to the hearts of the people, well, look, do as you know, and then you will figure it out for yourself. the lord does not take away freedom from people. almost all words society. welcomed the february revolution, almost all layers of society, including ordinary people, responded to the execution of emperor nicholas ii and his family in july 1918 with absolutely indifference, and according to the memoirs of contemporaries , they reacted to this with gloating, the red t
