So, the book is the first ... In it we will look into the windows, into which the hero of the “peak lady” observed by the gambling peered, in the hope of penetrating the mysterious house and exploring the cards of the welding old woman. We will find out where Dostoevsky was in a hurry home, so that, asking the hostess a candle, to lock himself in his room and continue to create. We read where, to get acquainted with his parents, the young poet Dmitry Merezhkovsky brought his young wife Zinaida Hippius ... But the very building, past, licking and looking out the windows, walked the fictional heroes of Valentin Pikul, the poor Kurnosov, dreaming of wealth and admiral glory ... the walls of the old ones Petersburg houses were preserved
