When the Bolsheviks took power and V.I. Lenin headed Soviet Russia, Nadezhda Konstantinovna Krupskaya became one of the leaders of the powerful ideological structure of the state. But she always stayed in the shadow of her great husband. She literally dedicated her life to him. What Krupskaya did for Lenin was a feat. Those who themselves have experienced torment and suffering, seeing what an incurable disease does to a loved one, will agree with this. Lenin died early, leaving her alone before the whirlwinds of cruel times. Before Krupskaya’s eyes, almost all the comrades of the leader of the revolution, who were also her friends, were destroyed. In his new book, writer L. M. Mlechin talks about what brought Krupskaya and Lenin together, what their relationship was based on, why Krupskaya aroused antipathy in J. V. Stalin, what her role was in the construction of a new, socialist state. sign of information products 16+
