(220 words) As you know, from love to hate is one step. The reader can be convinced of this by the example of the fate of Faddey Mironovich Grigoriev - the hero of the story A.I. Solzhenitsyna Matrenin Dvor. Beautiful outwardly Thaddeus is ugly inside. He, like many of Matryona’s neighbors, could not understand the plight of a woman. All his life he could not come to terms with the fact that, by the will of circumstances, she became the wife of his brother.
For this reason - out of revenge - Thaddeus married the “other” Matryona, tried to take part of his “lawful” property from his former lover. Unlike Matrena Vasilyevna, Thaddeus Mironovich did not know how to forgive. He could not even forgive himself for living with an unloved woman. Thaddeus’s wife suffered from this dislike, the hero himself for days and nights hatched a plan of revenge ... The maid of the righteous village of Talnovo became a great way to get even with the “infidel”. Without waiting for the death of Matryna, even during her life Thaddeus began to ruin a house in which this poor woman lived for so many years, heavy but memorable years. For the sake of his crazy goal, he sacrificed his own son, son-in-law and, of course, Matryona.
After the death of the main character, the old man did not change at all. Thaddeus did not appear at the wake of the righteous, he only stood for a short time at the tomb, plunged into heavy thoughts about protecting the newly acquired logs. Thus, this character from the story of A.I. Solzhenitsyna "Matrenin Dvor" is the personification of heartlessness and stinginess. It is he who is considered the antipode of the righteous Matrena from the village of Talnovo.
