Two Lives. Part I

The book "Two Lives" is a mystical novel that is popular among people interested in the ideas of Theosophy and the Teaching of Living Ethics. This text was written by the famous opera singer, a student of K.S. Stanislavsky, soloist of the Bolshoi Theatre Concordia Evgenievna Antanova (1886–1959).
