Reading notes
- Good People §78 Голицынской больнице
The Golitsyn Hospital, founded in Moscow in 1802 from Prince Dmitry Golitsyn's bequest to serve the poor, was one of the city's principal charitable hospitals; that Vladimir ends his life there, rather than at home, underscores how alone -- for all his professional "connections" -- he has become.
