A LADY’S STORY
A Lady’s Story opens with a recollection not just of a journey, but of an emotional turning point. Natalya Vladimirovna, looking back on the day she and Pyotr Sergeyitch rode through the countryside, remembers the storm not as a threat, but as a spark that set something quietly powerful in motion. The landscape shimmered in the tension between light and rain, and the thrill of nature seemed to free them both from social constraints. Pyotr’s playful remarks about castles and lightning only thinly veiled…-
