The theme of love in the work of A.I. Kuprin "Garnet Bracelet"
In many of his works, Alexander Kuprin develops an important theme, it can be traced everywhere: stories, stories. This is the theme of love. She is also illuminated in the Garnet bracelet: disinterested, pure, open.
The protagonist of Kuprin's work, a young man of about thirty-five, blue-eyed, tall, good-looking, fell in love with Princess Vera Sheina. He lived in the hope of reciprocal love for his beloved, but this was impossible: she was married and did not want to change anything in her life. Zheltkov worked, lived in dreams that the girl would answer him with the same disinterested love, but in vain.
Afraid of causing her unnecessary pain and problems, he caught her fleeting glance, gait, wave of her hand, not daring to come close, say hello. He was glad of the forgotten beloved silk scarf on the bench where she was sitting and resting. Eight years passed unnoticed, the lover does not watch the clock.
A conversation with the husband of Princess Vera Sheina does not lead to anything: he also loves a beautiful woman, and is not going to give her away.
Zheltkov decided to give his beloved family heirloom a pomegranate bracelet. Many letters were sent to her, but no response. The gift came back. Vera cannot wear a bracelet in the presence of her husband and society, which will be a reproach to her in this case.
Tormented by conjectures, drowning in unrequited love, he decides to leave this life, because he does not see any further way out without life with his beloved. Willpower pushes him to such an act, great love swallowed him up, he drowned in it. And not to share it with anyone, only with Vera.
