Pre-revolutionary and besieged Petersburg, Solovki, and memories of forgotten people
Dmitry Likhachev bequeathed more than others to those who study the ancient Russian heritage. To all others, without exception, he left letters about how to live a life for which he is not ashamed and whose time he does not regret. And he left Memories that illustrate such a life. An amazing memory has preserved many episodes from the life of pre-revolutionary St. Petersburg, poignant images of the besieged St. Petersburg, the topography of the St. Petersburg suburban suburbs and Solovki, the everyday life of the Solovetsky camp. And lots of names and characters.
"Is it worth writing memoirs?» - the author asks the question. And so he answers it: "It is worth it-so that the events, the atmosphere of previous years are not forgotten, and most importantly, so that there is a trace of people who, perhaps, no one will ever remember again, about whom the documents lie."
