The Russian lady's year had a season for everything: the estate, the capital, the spa abroad. Doukhovsky's diary records the imperial upper class from the inside, the visits, the marriages, the servants and the immense boredom, in the last decades before the whole arrangement was swept away by people it had never troubled to notice.
