Abstract
The article analyzes the Russian sources used by Curzio Malaparte in his biography of V. Lenin (1932). In particular, the Italian writer attracted the historical journalism of L. Trotsky and also compared Lenin with the heroes of the Russian classic novel (F. Dostoevsky, I. Goncharov, L. Tolstoy). The purpose of the appeal to Russian sources was not only to find facts, but also to create an original image of Lenin – as a representative of the national character and as a typical European bourgeois.
