Petrograd, summer 1919.
... Yesterday's writings disappeared without a trace in a huge pile of paper. How can you find anything in such a mess! Gorky angrily stuck out the cigarette butt in the overflowing ashtray. The day was clearly not a good day, and perhaps, today will not work properly. He listened to the dishes in the dining room. His large apartment at 23 Kronwerksky Avenue resembled a commune - there were a lot of people there, some living permanently, some temporarily. In addition, guests always came for dinner and tea - at least 15 people sat at the table. Gorky was always an extremely hospitable host.

The owner of this apartment was Maria Fedorovna Andreeva - a former star of the Moscow Art Theater, the former mistress of Savva Morozov, and eventually his former common-law wife, Gorky. She is accompanied by her secretary and lover Pyotr Kryuchkov. Then there were the artists Valentina Kodasevich and Ivan Rakitsky. In the corner room lived the young Marusia Heinz, nicknamed Molecule, Orphan ... Many others lived nowhere. Gorky always helped everyone - even in exile in Arzamas and Capri.
He was very famous and popular in the West (where he was considered the successor of Tolstoy) and he received a large amount of fees, two-thirds of which he distributed - to distant relatives, acquaintances, relatives of acquaintances and friends.
In the harsh winter of 1919, scientists, writers, actors, artists often came to him - hungry, as crows. Gorky immediately wrote a letter to the appropriate institution, and to expedite it, it hinted at his illegitimate child. It worked, and then the young mothers went to Gorky. Soon, the brother responsible for the milk rebelled and declared that he could not afford to provide milk for Gorky's numerous children, and the writer himself was embarrassed - given his position!
Gorky stopped writing on paper and listened. The front door creaked open, calls were heard: "Duka, come out, Corny's here!" "Duka" was his nickname, Gorky. He put himself in order and went to the dining room. They were already waiting for him.

• Here, meet, - Chukovsky said gently, - this Mura, Maria Ignativna Zakrevskaya, please love and patronize.
  The left side of his chest felt hot and tingly, and Gorky was surprised at himself.
  Although there was nothing to be surprised about, Maria Ignativna Zakrevskaya was an extraordinary woman in every respect. An old noble family, well educated, intelligent, forward thinking and extremely attractive. At the age of eighteen she married Baron Benkendorf and bore him two children. After the revolution, she sent the children to the Estonian estate in Kalijorv. Soon after, my husband fled from the Bolsheviks. Mura stayed in Moscow: she fell in love with the British ambassador Buss Lockhart.
  In fact, Lockhart was an intelligence officer who was involved in the so-called "Ambassadors' Plot." Years later he released a book called "Memoirs of a British Agent" and a spy film was made based on this book in Hollywood. The main characters were of course Lockhart and Mura Zakrevskaya.
  When the "Red Terror" began, Lockhart was arrested, and after him Mura came to Lubyanka. However, she was soon released: in prison she managed to deceive the famous Chekist Peters, Dzerzhinsky's right-hand man. Lockhart was quickly exchanged for Litvinov, the Soviet ambassador who was arrested in London.

  Zakrevskaya ended up alone in Moscow, without money and documents. In April 1919, she learned that her husband had been executed in Estonia. Mura understood that it was necessary to take away the children under the care of the old regime. But where to take it and what to live?
  She moved to Petrograd, where she had old acquaintances, hiding in corners and desperately looking for work. Someone advised her to go to Chukovsky, who worked at the World Literary Publishing House. Mura asked him for translations: she knew English well and wanted to translate Wilde and Galsworthy. Korney Ivanovich did not give her translations, but he entrusted her with office work. When Gorky complained that he was completely tortured without a competent secretary, Chukovsky took the guard to him.
