About the author
Born in 1857, she became known as a Russian writer and playwright, publishing under the pseudonym V. Mikulich. She also used the name Mimochka, and her literary career placed her within the lively magazine and theater culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Her writing was part of the broader world of Russian literature before the Revolution, and she remained a recognizable literary figure well into the 20th century. She died in 1936.
Today, she is of interest both for her own novels and plays and for the window she offers into the cultural circles of her era.
