Romain Gary is one of the most striking French classics, twice winner of the Goncourt Prize, the author of two dozen brilliant novels that the whole world reads. A prominent diplomat, war hero, pilot, commander of the Legion of Honor, Gary was born in Vilna (now Vilnius) and began writing in Russian at the age of 9. His real name is Roman Katsev, and his pseudonym Gary is derived from the Russian verb “to burn.” "Lady L.” is a drama of passionate love that took place at the end of the 19th century against the backdrop of robberies and political murders committed by anarchists for the sake of a “bright future for humanity.” Half a century later, the venerable English Duchess, once ardently in love with an anarchist fanatic, tells about her experiences to an old friend who is deeply shocked by the past of the woman she adores. It is considered to be a parting gift from Gary to his first wife, the English writer Leslie Blanche, some of whose features are discernible in the irresistible Lady L. The novel is based on a film starring Sophia Loren and Paul Newman, directed by Peter Ustinov (1965). Published in a new translation by Natalia Mavlevich. .
