Letter to Maria Alexandrovna Ulyanova, March 4, 1901
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1977, Moscow, Volume 37, pages 323-324
Maria Alexandrovna Ulyanova,
Sharonovâs House,
Bakhmetyevskaya Street,
Moscow,
Russia
Vienna, March 4, 1901
I have come here, Mother dearest, on a hunt for âpapersâ for Nadya. There was no Russian consul in Prague and my application for a passport for Nadya had to be witnessed. Vienna is a huge, lively and beautiful city. After the âprovinceâ where I live it is pleasant to see the metropolis. There is something to look at here, so it is worth while stopping off (should any of you be travelling this way). For this purpose I have sent Nadya a pocket FĂźhrer durch Wien. I hope she will soon be seeing youâthere should be no hitch with the passport now. I ask Manyasha, when she happens to be in the centre of the town, to buy Hendschelâs Telegraph (two marks) for Nadya (it is not worth the trouble of sending one from here).
Among other things, I have seen the Museum der bildenden K&numl;ste[1] here, and even saw a Viennese operetta. I did not like it very much. I was also at a meeting where a Volksuniversitätskurse[2] was in progress. I got in at the wrong time and went away quickly.
Regards to everyone; many kisses for you, my dear.
Yours,
V. U.
It is probable that a letter from Anyuta, or perhaps yours or Manyashaâs, is waiting for me at home.
Just in case of accidents I am repeating my new address:
Herrn Franz ModrĂĄ\v cek. Vr\v sovice bei Prag. Oesterreich.
