Kondratyev]] is also living alongside us. The weather is most inclement; everyone is angry and irritable — but as a lover of bad weather, I&amp;#039;m very patient.

They spoil all my pleasure. When I rented [[Maydanovo]], I didn&amp;#039;t know that there were more dachas here, otherwise, of course, I wouldn&amp;#039;t have rented it. The whole point is that I want to be the complete master of the place where I live. Now I&amp;#039;m looking for a modest estate, without any sort of dachas! I suspect that you want to give your embroidery to someone else, and you are so eloquently persuading them to have an excuse to be rid of me. How can I find this lovely work &amp;#039;&amp;#039;unfit&amp;#039;&amp;#039;? No! I repeat one hundred thousand times: it is wonderful, excellent, magnificent, ideal!!! All those whom you want to make happy to my detriment — let them wait. I&amp;#039;m now writing a symphony as a form of relaxation, so that in the winter I can indulge in an opera with the greatest of pleasure. I kiss your hands and ask you not to forget and to let me know about yourself.

You describe the beauty of the raging sea so vividly that I became envious. They laugh at me when I say that I love bad weather, but just imagine that it&amp;#039;s true! A grey sky with wispy clouds, a grey sea with white foamy waves — what could be more beautiful than this? But you need the house to be warm and cosy, yet you complain about it; this is bad indeed! I&amp;#039;ve just returned to [[Maydanovo]] after a three-week absence. I sat for three whole weeks over the examinations at the conservatory, found out its true situation and requirements, and accomplished a whole revolution: namely, elevating [[Taneyev]] to become the conservatory director. It cost me a great deal of trouble and effort. As a result I was afflicted by inexpressible fatigue, from which I barely recovered, set about my work, and entered the limits of normal life. &lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Besides [[Tolina]]&amp;#039;s family, [[Modya]] is living here (also with his family, for he&amp;#039;s writing a story and is besotted with its characters) and your friend [[Nikolay Kondratyev|N. D. Kondratyev]] is also living alongside us. The weather is most inclement; everyone is angry and irritable — but as a lover of bad weather, I&amp;#039;m very patient. It&amp;#039;s only for little [[Tatyana Tchaikovskaya|Tanya]], who was starting to become stronger and healthier, that I too long for the sun. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Novichikha&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (as we call the owner) was initially very intrusive in trespassing on our intimacy, but now, fortunately for us, she&amp;#039;s become very close with the other summer residents, and rarely appears; but oh, those summer residents! They spoil all my pleasure. When I rented [[Maydanovo]], I didn&amp;#039;t know that there were more dachas here, otherwise, of course, I wouldn&amp;#039;t have rented it. The whole point is that I want to be the complete master of the place where I live. Now I&amp;#039;m looking for a modest estate, without any sort of dachas! I suspect that you want to give your embroidery to someone else, and you are so eloquently persuading them to have an excuse to be rid of me. How can I find this lovely work &amp;#039;&amp;#039;unfit&amp;#039;&amp;#039;? No! I repeat one hundred thousand times: it is wonderful, excellent, magnificent, ideal!!! All those whom you want to make happy to my detriment — let them wait. I&amp;#039;m now writing a symphony as a form of relaxation, so that in the winter I can indulge in an opera with the greatest of pleasure. I kiss your hands and ask you not to forget and to let me know about yourself. Bow to Pyotr Ivanovich, Lyubov Petrovna and her husband.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Очень рад был получить от тебя известие, голубушка Аня! Ты так живо описываешь красоту бушующего моря, что мне завидно стало. Надо мной смеются, когда я говорю, что люблю дурную погоду, а ведь представь, что это правда! Серое небо с клочковатыми облаками, серые с белой пеной морские волны, — да что может быть красивее этого? Но нужно, чтобы дома при этом было тепло и уютно, а ты на дом жалуешься; вот это уж плохо! Я только что вернулся в Майданово после трёхнедельного отсутствия. Три целых недели просидел на консерваторских экзаменах, узнал её настоящее положение и потребности и совершил целый переворот, а именно: возвёл Танеева в консерваторские директора. Это стоило мне больших хлопот и усилий. В результате получилось невыразимое утомление, от которого едва только теперь опомнился, принялся за свою работу и вошёл в рамки своей нормальной жизни.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
У нас здесь очень оживлённо. Кроме семейства Толиного живёт Модя (тоже с семейством, ибо он пишет повесть и увлечён своими действующими лицами) а также рядом с нами живёт твой приятель Н. Д. Кондратьев. Погода очень неблагоприятна; все сердятся и злятся, — но в качестве любителя дурной погоды, я очень терпелив. Только вот для маленькой Тани, которая начала было укрепляться и здороветь, тоже жажду солнца. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Новичиха&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (так мы называем хозяйку) сначала было очень назойливо лезла в интимность, но теперь, на наше счастье, очень сошлась с другими дачниками и редко по­является; но зато ох уж эти дачники! они отравляют мне все удовольствие. Нанимая Майданово, я не знал, что здесь есть ещё дачи, а то, конечно бы, не нанял. Вся суть в том, что я хочу быть полным хозяином места, в коем живу. Ищу теперь небольшой усадьбы без всяких дач! Я подозреваю, что тебе хочется твоё вышивание отдать кому-нибудь другому, и так красноречиво уговариваешь его, чтобы иметь предлог отделаться от меня. Как я могу найти эту прелестную работу &amp;#039;&amp;#039;негодной&amp;#039;&amp;#039;! Нет! сто тысяч раз повторяю: чудно, превосходно, великолепно, идеально!!! Пусть подождут те, которых ты хочешь, в ущерб мне, осчастливить. Пишу теперь в виде отдохновения симфонию, чтобы с большим удовольствием предаться зимой опере. Целую твои ручки и прошу не забывать и давать знать о себе. Петру Ивановичу, Любовь Петровне и её мужу поклон. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Твой неизменно любящий,&lt;br /&gt;
