Sinners and graces

Love stories, when intimate partners have a big age difference, and one has less than eighteen, are quite well known in literature and cinema. Offhand. V. Nabokov "Lolita" (she is 12 - he is 42), A. Pushkin "From the All-Day Evening" (he is 13 - she is 43), N. Garin-Mikhailovsky "Tyoma's Childhood" (he is 14 - she is 44), G. Apollinaire "The Exploits of a Young Don Juan" (he is 15 - she is 45), Film actress and director S.S. (she is -13, he is -33), Actress E.P. and film director (she is -14, he is -44), etc. The second layer of "forbidden" love stories that I asked participants in my village about and wrote as a memoir in this book are short spontaneous loves for one night, half a day, an hour, half an hour and rarely longer: between a stepson and a stepmother, son-in-law and mother-in-law, nephew and aunt, godson and godmother, nanny and pupil, shepherd and milkmaid, brother-in-law and sister-in-law, student and teacher, student and professor, lieutenant and general's wife, etc. How did it happen that it was not enough for them to sit over a cup coffee, over a samovar and talk, and they suddenly burned with passion, looked closely into each other's eyes and wanted closer communication, he suddenly put his hand under her skirt, stroked her thighs and above, began to hug, kiss on the lips, squeezed her waist, dragged on the couch and immediately gave her private lessons in silence, as the poets say, that is, he planted his H. in her P. and yep, as prose writers write.
