AI Kuprin The
White Poodle
This day was not particularly successful for the wandering circus performers – the grandfather Martyn Lodyzhkin (on the shoulder – the old “unhealthy” hurdy-gurdy), the boy Sergei (taken by the grandfather “for hire” from the zabuldygy who soon died) and poodle Artaud: they were expelled from many Miskhor dachas, only one lady gave a dime, and that one was leaky… At the last summer residence “Friendship” they became involuntary witnesses of family quarrels: the capricious little boy Trilly was begged to take medicine. The performance of the strolling artists impressed Trilli so much that he wished Arto. The old man refused to sell a four-legged friend for any money. The circus performers were driven out.
Later, the janitor found a troupe by the sea and repeated the offer, and again received a refusal – “not everything is sold, what is bought.” At night, while the old man and the boy slept, the janitor stole Arto, luring the dog with sausage. Martyn could not go to the police, because in his hands he had only a foreign passport, bought for 25 rubles from a Greek. The next night, leaving the old man to sleep in the coffee house, Sergei made his way to the dacha and released Arto.
