The work by Elena Menegal'do narrates about Russian Paris - a unique and fantastic 'state' that formed at the beginning of the XXth century in one of the most beautiful European capitals. This 'state' established its own institutional settings, educational system, cultural institutions and the press; it did everything to preserve its native language. The author of the book describes an inexhaustible cultural and spiritual heritage created by Russian outcasts, and describes their astonishing destinies and personal tragedies.
