This book notedly differs from everything, that it was written about Фаине Раневской before. A book does not apply on truth in an eventual instance, however the character of great actress, created by an author, impresses unusual naturalness, "liveliness" and plausibility. Раневская appears to the reader truly natural, thinly feeling an injustice and dignities of our life, poverty and spiritual wealth of people| she appears a man, possessing a hard, critical look to the world and phenomena. But at the same time this book creates character of bashful, not nice, very conscientious woman with that a fate treated not always affectionately and justly.
