Prince Felix Feliksovich Yusupov. Memories. Before Exile. In Exile

Prince Felix Feliksovich Yusupov - an aristocrat, the last of the wealthiest Yusupov family, a handsome, elegant, educated man and a master of provocation, participant in the murder of Rasputin, tells the story of his family and his own life.

With tenderness and love, he writes about his mother, the famous beauty Princess Zinaida, and with respect, but reservedly about his father - a guard officer, about his friendship with his brother and his early death. The author describes his tumultuous youth, the life of his family in Arkhangelsk and in the capital's mansions, the preparations for celebrations, the décor of the estates, the luxury that surrounded him from birth, entertainingly and wittily. 

And then the revolution, the loss of all possessions, flight abroad and life in exile with all its deprivations and longing for the Motherland.
