Sof`ia Gollidei (d. 1934) became known first as a character of Tsvetaeva`s "Povest` o Sonechke". This book has the same characters as Tsvetaeva`s, but based on real documents and verified facts. Many of Sofiia`s peers and friends became celebrities, like Iurii Zavadskii or Pavel Antokol`skii, but her acting life was not successful for many reasons. However, according to the author, Sonechka`s personal gift was allied to Tsvetaeva`s: she was a unique personality and free despite all the hardships she met in her soviet life. Galina Brodskaia, a well known historian of Russian theater, is the author of Alekseev-Stanislavskii, Chekhov, etc: The Cherry Orchard Story (2000), also available.
