Shukshin's wife will be buried in the "begging" place.
On November 11, there will be a farewell ceremony for theater and film actress, People's Artist of the RSFSR Lidiya Fedoseeva-Shukshina. She will be buried next to her ex-husband, the famous writer and director Vasily Shukshin, at the Novodevichy cemetery.
And when the actress herself talked about it in an interview, it was concluded many years ago. Once the couple were at the Novodevichy cemetery looking for the grave of Sergei Yesenin. Shukshin was a fan of the poet's work, but did not know that he was buried in the Vagankovskoye cemetery.
After wandering in vain among the tombstones, they walked in silence towards the exit.
Vasya is silent. And suddenly he spoke softly, humbly: "What's happening to me, they won't bury me here. " And without second thoughts I blurted out: "No, Vasya, I will bury. " I don't know how such terrible prophetic words escaped me. Apparently, the master should have put them in my mouth. And his grave is in the alley with the classic writers," Pedoseva-Shokshina said.
