Territory of love by Alexei Tolstoy

The son of a children's writer Alexandra Bostrom, nee Turgenevo, Alexei Tolstoy did not know his father. The relationship of mother with count Nikolai Tolstoy has been more than dramatic. She left with the children to a loved one who has replaced his father. Alexey, future famous writer, fell in love for the first time in 17 years, after seeing the rehearsal of the Amateur drama club Julia Rozhansky. She would become his first wife and mother of his son George, who died in infancy. Mature feeling will come later, when he meets Sofia Dymshits. She would appear to him extraordinary. He is a writer, she's an artist.
After the forced separation, they will connect their destinies. Near Dymshits the fat will come literary recognition. They parted in 1914. Then there will be a passion for the ballerina Kondaurova, marriage to Natalia Krandievskii, Lyudmyla Barsaloi-Krestinsky. Love in the life of Alexei Tolstoy will always be alternated with disappointment.
The book of Viktor Petelin, written in the spirit of fictionalized biography, tells the story of the little-known aspects of the life of the great writer.
