Modern readers learn themselves and buddies in the woven shopping and suffering from love of the nobles. The biography of the writer, the language and heroes of which are not outdated for 100 years, full of mysteries and mystifications.Childhood and youth
Nadezhda Lohwitskaya (the real name and surname of the most successful "satirist in the skirt") was born in the city on the Neva in the spring of 1872. The exact date of birth is argued, as well as how many children in the family. It was documented that Nadi had one younger (Lena) and three senior (Varya, Lida and Masha) sisters and one older brother (Kolya).
The father of the future writer was a specialist in constitutional law and successfully combined the role of a lawyer, professor, a literary popularizer of jurisprudence, i.e., occupied approximately such a position as 120 years later Anatoly Sobchak or Mikhail Bushchevsky. Mother had french roots. When Nadah turned 12 years old, the father of the family died.
Nadin Praded Conrad (Kondratii) Lohvitsky wrote mystical poems, and the family legend told about the magic gift, which is transmitted only by the male line, and if the lady wishes them, he will pay for it with personal happiness. A girl from an early age loved the books and even tried to change the fate of the characters: in his youth, Nadia went to Lion Tolstoy and asked the writer not to deprive the life of Andrei Bolkonsky. The first poems were born in Hope Lohwitsky during training in the gymnasium.
The girl was not beautiful and married the first challenger. Marriage with Vladimir Buchinsky brought the hope of two daughters - Leru and Lena and Son Yanek, but the mother "demonic woman" turned out to be Nalaskova. Saving up to 28 years old, Lohvitskaya left her husband. Buchinsky deprived the Nadia to communicate with children.
Books
Lochwitskaya separated with Sippers, unlike Anna Karenina, did not rush under the train, and returned to the youthful dream of literature and in 1901 debuted in the magazine "North" poem "I dreamed of a mad and wonderful dream." By the time of publication, the work of the sister of a novice writer, Maria, was already a famous poetess that was working in the pseudonym Mirra Lohvitskaya. Hope thought about the original literary name.The origin of the pseudonym Tafffi Lohvitskaya-youngest explained in different ways. The first version - Nadezhda recalled the unusually stupid, but a very lucky acquaintance, whose name was called Staffphi, and for conspiracy, throwing the initial letter, came up with the name under which he became famous. The second version - the pseudonym is borrowed by Lochwitz from the story of kiling on a playful, deserving a sprawer girl.
The jog of both versions corresponded to the amplua, which had a hope of popularity: the writer, who was able to write poems, compose and translate the plays, to create novels and memoirs, became famous as the author of short stories in which satire and lyricism were combined.
If Mirra Lokhvitskaya became the literary forerunner of Women's poets Akhmatova and Tsvetaeva, then TEFFI - a new star style created by Anton Chekhov. How bitter Ironized hope:
"Poetry is my love, and humorous fictionalism - cormalitsa."The king of the Russian humor Arkady Averchenko appreciated the work of the rival and printed Faken and Jesters Tafffi in his publishing house "Satirikon". The miniatures of the writer were also published in the "Russian Word" and "Speech". The name "Tafffi" was perfect and chocolate candies.
Hummifiers of Hope TEFFI combined fascination of detectives with fasteners. In the stories of the "criminal" and "life and collar", heroes mastering a passion for things. But if in the first 5-year-old thief praises and firmly falls on the path of correction, then in the second "fashionable collar" begins to twist before the decent young lady.
In the works of "Happy Love", "Demonic Woman" and "Katenka" Heroes are deceiving others and eventually themselves. In the story "Happiness", the tonality is completely different than in the listed humors - now it's laughter through tears: balls come to power, and former Kukhukin, the worker threatens shooting a family for the accidentally preserved portrait of Kerensky.
Lohvitsky did not accept the October Revolution. My brother Nicholas became a companion of Kolchak, and Nadezhda Alexandrovna through Odessa and Constantinople immigrated to Paris. Life in a foreign land was not sweet, but the gift of foresight and the decisiveness of TEFFI was probably saved by the writer from death in the Bolshevik dungeons.
Personal life
The writer sought to remain a mystery and limited the access of journalists to personal life, and answered questions about age, which feels 13-year-old. It is known that the woman was interested in mysticism and loved cats very much, especially the last pet suffering from obesity. In the mature years, TEFFI tried to establish communication with grown children, but only senior Valeria went to contact from three siblings.
Readers who have so worked to get acquainted with the Queen of the Russian-speaking humor, when communicating with TEFFI disappointed - the idol had a melancholic and irritable character. However, with fellow in Peru, the writer was good and generous. Created by TEFFI In the French capital, the literary salon became the center of attraction of Russian emigrants, his regulators were a dong-amine additive and prose Alexei Tolstoy.
To get along with the lady who knew the price and very scattered in everyday life, managed to the second spouse - the son of the former Kaluga manufacturer Pavlu Alexandrovich Tikston. Nadezhda Aleksandrovna considered the second husband the best person on Earth, and when the disease looked around him, touching his spouse. In the last years of life, the writer of care for her material security took on Philanthropes S. S. Atran.

Rumors about the death of TEFFI, who survived the fascist occupation of France, Vitali long before the care of Hope Alexandrovna from life.
