She is a brilliant poet Marina Tsvetaeva, that summer she was 34 years old. Her correspondent and lover are Nikolai Gronsky, an 18-year-old young man from a professorial family of emigrants, and an aspiring poet. Tsvetaeva wrote from a resort town in the south of France, she was looking forward to the arrival of her beloved and was happy. He answered from Paris with the ardor of a poet in love. Young Gronsky was not inferior to Marina either in the strength of affection, the level of intelligence, or nobility. In the letters, the interlocutors appear in many guises: as lovers, friends, mother and son, mentors, and disciples. "I was his first love, and he seems to be my last," Marina will write later.
