| Summary | "The Real Tsaritsa" by Madame Lili Dehn is a memoir written in the early 20th century, specifically around the aftermath of the Russian Revolution. The book provides an intimate account of the life of Empress Alexandra of Russia, as seen through the eyes of her close friend and confidante, Lili Dehn. It explores the complexities of Alexandra’s character and her experiences during a tumultuous time for the Russian Empire, nestled within the backdrop of both personal and national tragedy. The opening of the memoir introduces the author’s own background, detailing her upbringing on her family estate in South Russia and her connections to the Russian nobility. Dehn describes her childhood memories, the rich traditions, and the cultural nuances of Russian life that contrasted sharply with the impending chaos of the Revolution. Through heartfelt recollections, she lays the groundwork for her relationships with the Empress and her family, touching on significant historical events that shaped both their personal lives and the fate of Russia itself. The narrative promises to draw readers into the royal world, portraying the Tsaritsa with empathy and insight that challenge prevailing perceptions of her character and circumstances.
