 The Period of Transition, 1925–31D. E. Moggridge Chapter 4 in Keynes, 1976, pp 76-90 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract The years surrounding the preparation of A Treatise on Money were in many respects transitional ones for Keynes. In August 1925, after ‘living with’ her for some years, he married Lydia Lopokova of the Diaghilev ballet.1 The marriage, despite the absence of children, was happy. It did entail for Keynes a somewhat greater distance from the other members of Bloomsbury: ‘they had now become a delightful recreation instead of being the main background of his life.’2 Just after his marriage, Keynes took a lease on Tilton, a farmhouse near Firle in Sussex. Later he added a substantial acreage and farmed the area with a manager. With Tilton he came to divide his life roughly as follows: London during the week, Cambridge for long working weekends during term and Tilton for the remaining weekends and vacations. In fact, Tilton became the place where he was to do much of his most serious writing for the rest of his life. On his marriage, Keynes visited Russia for the first time. This visit, plus later ones in 1928 and 1936, made him a more interested observer of Russian affairs in the years that followed.
