As if such advice was given to him by Alexei Tolstoy, who argued that the key to literary success lies in a threefold marriage. And a fortune teller in Kiev, as he recalled, guessed that he would marry three times. So they are different, Mikhail Bulgakov and Elena Nuremberg, who became not only his third wife, but also the main prototype of Margarita in the novel "The Master and Margarita", considered their union predetermined from above.

Here it is, love
The meeting between Mikhail and Elena took place in the apartment of the artists Moiseenko. Forty years later, Elena Nuremberg wrote in her memoirs:.
But by that time she had a husband and two children. The situation seemed like a stalemate. In the summer of 1929, Elena left for Essentuki for treatment. Bulgakov wrote beautiful letters to her, sent petals of red roses, and she, fearing compromising evidence, destroyed every letter.
At the beginning of 1931, the husband of Elena Sergeevna, Evgeny Alexandrovich Shilovsky, found out about their relationship. He had a difficult conversation with the writer, after which Bulgakov made a promise not to see Elena Sergeevna again. “The misfortune happened on February 25, 1931,” he wrote on a sheet of White Guard, believing that he would never meet his Elena again.

It is known that he wrote to Shilovsky and Bulgakov: "Dear Evgeny Alexandrovich, pass by our happiness …". To which the legal spouse replied to the writer: "Mikhail Afanasevich, what I do, I do not for you, but for Elena Sergeevna."The divorce was difficult and painful and ended with the separation of children: the eldest, 10-year-old Evgeny, stayed with his father, the youngest, 5-year-old Seryozha, went with his mother to Bulgakov's house.
I want to die in your arms …
On October 3, 1932, Bulgakov divorced Belozerskaya, and the next day he married Elena Sergeevna. Six months later, he gave his wife a power of attorney to conclude contracts with publishing houses and theaters regarding his works, as well as to receive royalties. A year later, at his request, Elena Sergeevna began to keep a diary, and kept it for 7 years until the last day of Mikhail Afanasyevich's life.
She devoted all of herself to her husband and his work: she wrote under his dictation, typed manuscripts on a typewriter, edited them, drew up contracts with theaters, negotiated with the right people, dealt with correspondence. She became for him a muse, a secretary, a biographer and a tireless employee. It is thanks to Elena Sergeevna that Bulgakov's archive has been preserved.
