In spite of the ban, the play was unofficially produced and read numerous times.The central character is a peasant, Nikita, who seduces and abandons a young orphan girl Marinka; then the lovely Anisija murders her own husband to marry Nikita. He impregnates his new stepdaughter, then, under his wife’s influence, murders the baby. On the day of his stepdaughter’s marriage, he surrenders himself and confesses to the police.
