Summary/Abstract: Nadezhda Teffi and Arkadiy Averchenko belonged to the most distinguished Russian satyrical writers of the early 20th century. After the revolution in 1917 they were forced to emigrate. Both Teffi and Averchenko many times made comments on the revolution and criticised Bolshevist Russia and the Soviet Union. Their works in emigration are valuable materials for the historians interested in civil war and Russian literary life in the years 1917–1920.
