"I write these memoirs with the secret hope that you, my readers, will love as alive those of whom I am recalling. Love them, resurrect them in your memory and in your hearts.
And thereby give them immortality. You, my contemporaries, and you, those who will read - I hope for this self-confidently - "On the Banks of the Neva" when I will be long gone. Irina Odoevtseva Memoirs of Irina Odoevtseva "On the Banks of the Neva" read and reread for several decades, but many secrets have not yet been revealed. Oleg Lekmanov - philologist, professor at the Higher School of Economics, who has written books about Osip Mandelstam, Sergei Yesenin and Venedikt Erofeev - has studied the famous text, deconstructing it into its many components. "Guide to the book 'On the Banks of the Neva'" - is a dialog between author and researcher. "The charm of Odoevtseva's book is immense and the author's talent is evident, and her love for the characters, time and place is undeniable. Oleg Lekmanov was the first to comment in detail and carefully on this hijacked and slandered book - and now we can finally imagine how things really were. And most importantly, it becomes clear that there is no "really" - there are the testimonies of biased contemporaries, differing only by the measure of talent and the ability to appreciate each other".
