“Doctor Zhivago” Pasternak in the summary
When Yurin Uncle Nikolai Nikolayevich moved to Petersburg, other relatives, Gromeko, took care of him, who was left an orphan in ten years, in the house of which there were interesting people at the Sivtsev Vrazhka, and where the atmosphere of the professorial family quite contributed to the development of the Jurassic talents.
The daughter of Alexander Alexandrovich and Anna Ivanovna Tonya was a good friend to him, and a classmate at the gymnasium of Misha Gordon was a close friend, so he did not suffer from loneliness.
Once during a home concert, Alexander Alexandrovich had to accompany one of the invited musicians on an urgent call to the rooms where his good acquaintance, Amalia Karlovna Gishar, had just tried to settle accounts with her. The professor gave in to the request of Yura and Misha and took them with him.
While the boys stood in the hallway and listened to the complaints of the victim that she was pushed by such terrible step of terrible suspicions,
At the looks of the man she responded with a wink of the accomplice, pleased that everything had turned out and their secret had not been revealed. In this silent conversation there was something frighteningly magical, like he was a puppeteer, and she was a puppet. Yura’s heart contracted from the contemplation of this enslavement. On the street, Misha told a friend that he had met this man. A few years ago, he and his father were traveling with him on the train, and he was soldering on the way to the Yuri’s father, who then fled the site to the rails.
The girl, seen by Yura, turned out to be the daughter of Madame Guichard. Larissa was a schoolgirl. At the age of sixteen she looked eighteen years old and was somewhat burdened by the situation of the child – the same as her girlfriends. This feeling intensified when she yielded to the courtship of Victor Ippolitovich Komarovsky, whose role with her mother
A few years later, as a medical student, Yuri Zhivago met Lara again under unusual circumstances.
Together with Tonya Gromeko on the eve of Christmas, they went to the Christmas tree to Sventsitsky on the Kamergersky lane. Recently, a painfully long and painful Anna Ivanovna joined their hands, saying that they were created for each other. Tonya really was a close and understanding person. At that moment she caught his mood and did not stop to admire the frosted, luminous windows from inside, in one of which Yuri noticed a black thaw, through which was seen the candle fire, turned to the street almost with a conscious look. At that moment, the lines of yet unformed verses were born: “The candle was burning on the table, the candle was burning…”
He did not even suspect that outside the window Lara Guishar was speaking at this moment Pasha Antipova, who had not hidden from the childhood of her adoration, that if he loves her and wants to deter death, they must immediately marry. After that, Lara went to Sventsitsky, where Yuri and Tonya had fun in the hall, and where Komarovsky sat behind the cards. About two o’clock in the morning a shot suddenly sounded in the house. Lara, shooting at Komarovsky, missed, but the bullet touched the comrade of the prosecutor of the Moscow Trial Chamber. When Laru was led through the hall, Yura was stupefied – that one! And again the same gray-haired man that had to do with his father’s death! To top it off, after returning home, Tonya and Yura no longer found Anna Ivanovna alive.
Lara managed to save Komarovsky from the trial, but she fell ill, and Pasha was not allowed to visit her yet. He came, however, Kologrivov, brought “awards”. More than three years ago, Lara, in order to get rid of Komarovsky, became the teacher of his youngest daughter. Everything went well, but then her public brother Rodya lost the public money. He was going to shoot if his sister did not help him. The Kologrivovs rescued the money, and Lara handed them over to Roda, taking away the revolver from which he wanted to shoot himself. Kologrivov did not manage to return the debt. Lara secretly from Pasha sent money to his exiled father and paid the owners of the room in Kamergerskom. The girl considered her position in Kologrivov false, did not see the way out of it, except to ask money from Komarovsky. Life has become disgusting to her. At the ball at the Sventsitskih Victor Ippolitovich pretended that he was busy with cards and did not notice Lara. To the girl who entered the room, he turned with a smile, the meaning of which Lara understood so well…
When Lara became better, she and Pasha got married and went to Yuryatin, to the Urals. After the wedding, the young people spoke until the morning. His guesses alternated with Larin’s confessions, after which his heart fell… In the new place Larisa taught at the gymnasium and was happy, although she had a house and a three-year-old Katya. Pasha taught Latin and ancient history. The wedding was arranged and Jura and Tonya were married. Meanwhile, the war broke out. Yuri Andreevich was at the front, not having time to really see his son. In another way Pavel Pavlovich Antipov got into the heat of battle.
With his wife, the relationship was not easy. He doubted her love for him. To free everyone from this forgery for family life, he finished officer courses and ended up on the front, where he was captured in one of the fights. Larisa Fyodorovna acted as a sister in the ambulance train and went to look for her husband. Lieutenant Galiullin, who knew Pasha from childhood, claimed to have seen how he died.
Zhivago witnessed the collapse of the army, the excesses of anarchist deserters, and when he returned to Moscow, he found even more terrible devastation. What he saw and experienced led the doctor to rethink a lot in his attitude towards the revolution.
To survive, the family moved to the Urals, to the former Krugerov estate Varykino, near the town of Yuryatin. The path ran through the snow-covered spaces on which the armed gangs ruled, through the regions of recently pacified uprisings, with horror repeating the name of Strelnikov, crowding the whites under the command of Colonel Galiullin.
In Varykin they stopped first with the former Kruger manager Mikulitsyn, and then in the outhouse for the servants. They planted potatoes and cabbage, put the house in order, the doctor sometimes took the patients. Unexpectedly announced half-brother Eugraph, energetic, mysterious, very influential, helped to strengthen their position. Antonina Alexandrovna, it seems, was expecting a child.
Over time, Yuri Andreyevich got an opportunity to visit Yuryatin in the library, where he saw Larisa Feodorovna Antipova. She told him about herself, that Strelnikov was her husband Pavel Antipov, who had returned from captivity, but disappeared under a different surname and did not support the relationship with the family. When he took Yuryatin, he bombarded the city with shells and never inquired if his wife and daughter were alive.
Two months later, Yuri Andreevich again returned from the city to Varykino, He deceived Tonya, continuing to love her, and was tormented by it. On that day he went home with the intention of confessing his wife to everything and not seeing Lara any more.
Suddenly, three armed men blocked his path and announced that the doctor had since been mobilized into a squad of Liveria Mikulitsyn. The doctor’s job was to the throat: in the winter – syepnyak, in the summer – dysentery and in all seasons – the wounded. Before Liveri, Yurii Andreievich did not conceal that the ideas of the October Revolution did not ignite him, that they were still so far from exercising, and for nothing but talk about it was paid by the seas of blood, so that the goal does not justify the means. And the very idea of the alteration of life was born by people who did not feel its spirit. Two years of bondage, separation from the family, hardship and danger ended nevertheless with a runaway.
In Yuryatin, the doctor appeared at a time when white people left the city, passing it in red. He looked wild, unwashed, hungry and weakened. Larisa Fedorovna and Katenka were not at home. In the cache for the keys he found a note. Larissa and her daughter went to Varykino, hoping to find him there. His thoughts were tangled, fatigue was tending to sleep. He melted the oven, ate a little and, without undressing, fell sound asleep. When he woke up, he realized that he was undressed, washed and was lying in a clean bed, which had been ill for a long time, but he was quickly recovering thanks to Lara’s cares, although to the full recovery there was no reason to think of returning to Moscow. Zhivago went to serve in gubzdrav, and Larisa Fyodorovna went to Gubono. However, the clouds over them thickened. In the doctor they saw socially alien, under Strelnikov the soil began to fluctuate. The town was raging.
At this time, a letter came from Tony: the family was in Moscow, but Professor Gromeko, and with it, and her children are sent abroad. Grief is that she loves him, and he does not. Let him build life according to his own understanding.
Suddenly Komarovsky appeared. He was invited by the government of the Far Eastern Republic and is ready to take them with him: they are both facing death threats. Yuri Andreyevich immediately rejected this proposal. Lara has long told him about the fateful role that this person played in her life, and he told her that Viktor Ippolitovich was the culprit of his father’s suicide. It was decided to take refuge in Barykin. The village was abandoned for a long time by residents, wolves howled around at night, but it would be more terrible for people to appear, and they did not take weapons with them. In addition, Lara recently said that she seems to be pregnant. I should not have thought of myself. Then just again came Komarovsky. He brought the news that Strelnikov was sentenced to be shot and Katenka should be saved, if Lara does not think of herself. The doctor told Lara that she was traveling with Komarovsky.
In snowy, forest loneliness Yuri Andreevich slowly went crazy. He drank and wrote poems dedicated to Lara. Lament for the lost loved one grew into generalized thoughts about history and man, about revolution as a lost and mourned ideal.
One evening the doctor heard a crunch of footsteps, and a man appeared in the doorway. Yuri Andreyevich did not immediately recognize Strelnikov. It turned out that Komarovsky deceived them! They spoke almost all night.
About the revolution, about Lara, about childhood on Tverskaya-Yamskaya. We lay down in the morning, but when we woke up and went out for water, the doctor found his interlocutor shot.
In Moscow, Zhivago appeared already at the beginning of the NEP, emaciated, overgrown and feral. He traveled most of the way on foot. During the next eight or nine years of his life, he lost his medical skills and lost his literary skills, but nevertheless he took up his pen and wrote thin little books. Lovers appreciate them.
The daughter of the former janitor Marina helped him in the household, she served on the telegraph line on the foreign communication line. Over time, she became the wife of a doctor and they had two daughters. But one of the summer days, Yuri Andreyevich suddenly disappeared. Marina received a letter from him that he wants to live alone for a while and not to be sought. He did not say that he again knew where the appeared brother Evgraf had rented a room in Kamergersky, provided him with money, began to work on a good job.
However, on a stifling August day, Yuri Andreyevich died of a heart attack. Say goodbye to him came to Kamergersky suddenly a lot of people. Among those saying goodbye was Larisa Fyodorovna. She came into this apartment from old memory. Here her first husband Pavel Antipov once lived. A few days after the funeral, she suddenly disappeared: she left home and did not return. Apparently, she was arrested.
Already in 1943, at the front, Major-General Yevgraf Andreevich Zhivago, asking about the beloved Tanka Bezocheredov about her heroic friend Scout Christina Orletsova, asked her, Tanya, the fate. He quickly realized that this was the daughter of Larisa and brother Yuri. Fleeing with Komorowski to Mongolia, when the Reds approached Primorye, Lara left the girl on the railway crossing to the watchman Martha, who had ended the days in a madhouse. Then homelessness, wanderings…
By the way, Evgraf Andreevich not only took care of Tatiana, but also collected everything written by his brother. Among his verses was the poem “Winter Night”: “Melo, melok throughout the land / In all limits.” / The candle was burning on the table, / The candle was burning… “
