Written in 1760 in Istanbul in Polish, the memoirs of the Belarusian noblewoman Salome Rusiecka de Pilshtyn resemble an enchanting adventure novel. Along with stories about events in European countries, the Russian and Turkish empires, their rulers, and various strata of society, Salome Rusiecka de Pilshtyn also tells about the hetmans Ivan Mazepa and Kyrylo Razumovsky, his brother Alexei, the secret husband of Russian Empress Elizabeth I. Among the various countries, places, and cities in which the author has lived, loved, rejoiced, and suffered, Ukraine occupies a special place.
