Richie Mikhailovna Dostyan (1915 - 1993) Soviet writer. Until she was ten years old, she lived in Poland, and then she and her parents came to Tbilisi, and this multilingual city - Tiflis - became her favorite. Schools - Georgian, then Russian, communication with multilingual peers, motley discord of the streets. Mother speaking two European languages, the old stately speech of the Udinka grandmother. Then suddenly - a pure stream of Armenian speech during the years of work in Yerevan. She wrote about it with warmth and humor, cordiality and quiet sadness.
