 Lenin's Mistress : The Life of Inessa Armand - Michael Pearson   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
This biography of Inessa Armand, an inner-circle member of Lenin's entourage and a revolutionary who served as secretary to the Moscow Society for Improving the Lot of Women, weighs her influence on Lenin (as a friend and perhaps mistress) and examines the events of her life in relation to their historical context.
The illegitimate daughter of a Parisian opera singer, Armand was fortunate to marry into a wealthy Moscow family, yet she left home after ten years and four children to live openly with her husband’s much younger brother, through whom she became deeply embroiled in Russia’s growing anti-tsarist underworld.
In 1920, Armand died of cholera after taking a holiday in the Caucasus at Lenin’s insistence, and at her state funeral, an extremely rare honor for a woman, Lenin’s visible distress shocked his comrades.

Armand's work was instrumental in the Bolsheviks' feminist achievements — reforms on marriage, divorce, education, employment and abortion which were far in advance of any capitalist country at that time.

 BBC News | Analysis | Lenin's Love Life Exposed?
The theory that Lenin had a love affair with Inessa Armand is widely accepted by historians, but it's usually supposed that this affair took place in Paris several years before the revolution, and was not long-lived.
From the fact that Armand had a room in the Kremlin, and believed in free love, it does not necessarily follow that she and Lenin continued to sleep together until her death from cholera in 1920.
Professor Service believes it's significant that Armand asked her daughter to deliver the letter to Lenin's sister, Maria, rather than to Krupskaya -- suggesting that Armand wanted to spare Krupskaya the pain of forwarding to her husband a declaration of love.
