But in Alyosha's opinion her face had become even more attractive, as it were, and he loved meeting her eyes when he entered her room (2a).♦ В тридцать шестом году он рассорился с отцом - строгим, деспотичным, не желавшим мириться с кинематографическими, на его взгляд несерьёзными, увлечениями сына...
