Anna Semënovna is known by the simple fact of her nearness, a name attached to a home in the everyday geography of the city. The text offers no portrait of her, leaving her presence quiet and elusive.

Anna Semënovna remains a brief, peripheral presence in the novel, identified as someone living near Dogs' Square. The count goes to see her, but the text gives no fuller account of their connection or her life. She is named again without further detail, her place in the story remaining deliberately slight.

Description

The text gives no physical description of Anna Semënovna. Her age, build, complexion, hair, eyes, clothing, and distinguishing features are unspecified; no more detailed portrait can be grounded in the novel.
