Marina Tsvetaeva and Ariadne Efron. Prague, 1925
It all began with the movie "Mirrors" about Marina Tsvetaeva.
I know that not always books coincide with the films put on them, and what to say about the fate of real people. I understand what art fiction is ... but! Because something is behind it.
So there was a desire to know WHAT!
I read Ariadne Efron's book "About MARINA TSVETAEVA." Memories of her daughter. "
I can not say that there are no questions left. I learned a lot of new, unusual, strange about Marina Tsvetaeva and about the relationship in her family.
So there was a need to read some documents. I was looking, reading.
I found a lot of absolutely contradictory information.
In order to write about Tsvetaeva, not only will not suffice a post, but even a more serious volume.
But I had another goal - I was interested in her daughter.
I began to try to compose the information that I found in the post.
But it did not turn out to be a little and succinct, but I know that we all do not like a lot of bukovok in posts.
And then I came across the composition of the school girl from Krasnoyarsk, Vershinina Maria, in which everything is set out clearly, but at the same time quite emotionally.
The size, though all the same great, but if there is time and desire, I suggest reading.
Maybe you will also learn something new for yourself.
Ariadne (Alya) Efron
"I did not live my life ..." (AS Efron)
Biography of the soul of Ariadna Sergeyevna Efron, whose road was incredible, tragically intertwined - is tangled not even in a thread, not in a tangle, but in a huge, nervous, bitter coma of contradictions, losses, emptiness, unfulfilled hopes and desires, misunderstandings, loneliness, pain, separation , Silence, woven nervously, in the closest, deadly embrace with the terrible bitterness of Time, I must honestly say that, of course, from the point of view of ordinary, average, human, familiar, simply feminine, the fate of Marina Tsvetaeva's daughter is not happy. Absolutely!
In fact, what? Who is Alya Efron? The daughter of her mother who lived in her shadow, suppressed by her every minute, a timid loser, a naive idealist who came to build a happy communist paradise from brilliant Paris to red Moscow, and spent half her life in prisons and GULAG camps, the woman beaten by investigators and guards And was, alas!) Yes there is a woman!
Ariadne Efron. The end of the 1920s
That the life of Ariadne Ephron was flawless, full, high and happy to the brim, and brilliant and wormwoodly endured burdens and immensely the Mother's Love that fell to her lot, and also - the Honor inscribed by her stars: to be the Daughter of Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva and Sergei Yakovlevich Efron.
She did not abandon her at the time of death. Moreover, she chose it for this hour. Consciously. We all choose in our lives. Honor to be a daughter was for her higher and more expensive than anything else on Earth. Above the usual female share, female happiness, female peace ... Female egoism, in the end!
The height of her Spirit was equal in strength to the Height of Talent of her brilliant, unique mother. And the height of the Debt ... I will not mention it, perhaps. Ariadna Sergeyevna did not tolerate pathos.

Biography
Ariadna Sergeyevna Efron was born on September 18 (5), 1912 in Moscow.
Parents were the poet Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva and the Russian publicist and writer Sergei Efron. Ariadne was the first-born in the family. As befits, this was an event for the parents - very young - Marina was not yet twenty, Seryozha - nineteen. The name for the daughter was chosen by Marina - by the name of the favorite heroine of Greek mythology.
"I called her Ariadna," in spite of Sergei, who loves Russian names, ("Well, Katya, well, Masha, I understand that!) Why Ariadna?"). For seven years I wrote a drama, where the heroine was called Anthrillia. "From Antrallia to Ariadne." -Called for romanticism and arrogance that lead my whole life.
"Ariadne." - It's responsible!
That's why. (* From the diary of Marina Tsvetaeva)
Irina Efron and Ariadne Efron (Alya). 1919.
By the age of four, her mother had taught her to read, to five to write, in six to a diary. At seven, in 1919, this unusually gifted and unevenly developed girl becomes a confidante of her brilliant mother, her support in all adversity. In those years, Ariadne-Alya, as her mother called her, writes her first poems and, of course, dedicates them to her mother, whom she adored and called simply Marina.
