Among Korsakov's exiles are some figures worth mentioning. Let's start with Bishikov, a lifelong slave. His criminal conduct provided Ger Uspensky with the material for a close-up of One to One. This Bishikov used a whip to kill his eight-month-pregnant wife and tortured her for six hours in a row. He did so out of jealousy of his wife's premarital life. His wife was an intellectual woman who had a crush on a captured Turk during the Russo-Turkish War. Bishikov sent a letter to the Turk, persuading him to go to a meeting and enthusiastically helping both sides. Later the Turk returned home, and the girl fell in love with Bishikov because of his kindness. Bishikov married her, and had four children with her, but suddenly developed a painful feeling of jealousy...
The man was tall, thin, well-mannered, and had a big beard. He was a recorder at the police station, so he dressed as a freedman. He was industrious and polite, and from the look of his face, he was introverted and refused to overflow in everything. I went to his apartment and unfortunately didn't meet him. He occupied a small room in a house with neat luggage, covered with a red blanket, and a framed portrait of a woman hanging from the bedside wall, presumably his wife. (Chekhov's Journey to Sakhalin)
Bishikov was a brutal beast! Before his wife married him, he once fell in love with the Turkish captives, he was the messenger of love, persuaded the Turkish captives to go to the rendezvous, enthusiastically helped both sides, and consciously acted as the "red bride." After the Turk returned home, the woman actually "fell in love with Bishikov because of his kindness", and the so-called "kindness" did he feel that Bishikov was enthusiastically helping her and the Turkish captives? Unfortunately, after Bishikov married the woman and gave birth to four children, he was obsessed with the love between his wife and the Turkish captives, and developed "painful and jealous feelings", and eventually tortured and tortured his wife to death. This ending, the woman and Bishikov should not have expected, it is really a great irony of their marriage, Bishikov's "kindness" has become a joke, you can also see how complex a monster man is!
