About the book: 2021 / Marina Tsvetaeva, who returned to her homeland after seventeen years of emigration, was not welcomed in the USSR with open arms. Quite the contrary. They prevented me from living, breathing, and did not allow me to publish. And yet she became one of the most read and beloved poets in Russia. This phenomenon is explained not only by her talent. Ariadne Efron, the daughter of a poet, made it her life's goal to return her mother's work to her homeland. She gave Marina Tsvetaeva a second life - bright and triumphant. At the cost of what efforts this became possible, the reader will learn from the letters of Ariadna Sergeevna Efron (1912–1975), addressed to Anna Aleksandrovna Saakyants (1932–2002), the editor of the first Tsvetaeva publications, and subsequently the leading researcher the life and work of the poet. This book tells about M. Tsvetaeva, her environment, her poems and prose and, of course, about time - literary and everyday events reflected in sketches of the life of a large country in a difficult, turning point time. The book contains profanity.
