Berberova was one of the greatest preservationists of the Russian intellectual scene around the turn of the century and in emigration in Europe after the revolution. Without her photographic memory and conscientiousness in annotation dozens of figures would now be untraceable ciphers, lost to history, their contribution unknown. Berberova had Armenian blood, as did Gurdjieff, and her life and attitude to life reminded me uncannily of that great hermetic philosopher and the Levantine gift for evading disaster and landing on one's feet. In English, this is the best introduction to that vanished world. To my knowledge, only Berberova bore witness to the chain of memory chronicling how Pushkin recited his poetry. This is priceless knowledge, and Berberova ferreted it out, wrote it down, and got it published. A great woman.

Great book
Russia in the 20th century. Expat Russians in Berlin and Paris and the US. Bberova seems to have known everyone worth knowing on the Russian literary scene. And she's a good writer to boot. Very enjoyable.
