The Tattered Cloak by Nina Berberova

Six short novels about men and women who lose their lives of privilege in Russia and live in diminished circumstances in Paris, their days full of nostalgia and longing - for love, salvation or release. Born in 1901, the author left Russia for Paris at the age of 24 and moved to America in 1950.
Berberova, Nina: - Nina Nikolaevena Berberova (1901-1993) was born in St. Petersburg. She left Russia after the revolution in 1922, eventually settling in Paris in 1925 with her lover Vladislav Khodasevich. She moved to the U.S. in 1950 and taught at Yale and Princeton. In France she was honored as a Chevalier of the French Order of Arts and Letters.
