They rarely spoke; he could never forgive her for what he had seen at the theater. Sometimes, if Véra was asleep, Nikolaï would leave his room, sit beside her on the couch, and watch her: her face was pale, much paler than usual, and in fact, she seemed unreal. In the twilight, she appeared to glow with a faint inner light. Véra breathed silently... as if she were not breathing at all. Now, she was even more beautiful, and loving her became even more painful. Véra is the story - almost a diary - of a man who loves his wife to madness. Haunted by suspicion, Nikolaï is convinced that Véra is cheating on him. Does she claim not to understand, does she swear her fidelity? She lies, of course! Moreover, a voice - whether an imaginary double or a real evil spirit - mocks Nikolaï, harassing him, cruelly pointing out his weakness. Can he truly escape his hallucinations, intertwined with reality, and the need to subject Véra to the worst treatment a man can inflict on a woman willing to make any sacrifice? An enchanting portrait of a jealous man and his victim, Véra reveals one of the most talented authors of contemporary Russian literature.
