Poetess Irina Knorring (1906–1943), whose short life was spent in exile in 1919–1920. fled with her parents to the south of Russia. The poems and notes of the young author reflected the chronicle and atmosphere of the “run”. At the same time, they preserved the flavor of old Simferopol, which suddenly became the center of cultural life and the “point of departure” of Russia. The book also contains poems from different years from the author's collections and handwritten notebooks of the poetess.
