Description
The book is an exciting journey into the world of a great avant-garde director—like an attraction that can reveal the secrets of cinema art and the universe as a whole.
Guzel Yakhina, known for her three novels—“Zuleikha Opens Her Eyes,” “My Children,” and “The Steppe Train”—is a laureate of such prestigious awards as “Book of the Year,” “The Big Book,” and “Yasnaya Polyana.” Her works have found their embodiment on screen and in theater and received recognition.
Her latest novel explores the mysterious personality of the great Eisenstein. This complex and internally contradictory man hid behind many masks, remaining misunderstood. Was he an adventurous creator of Soviet propaganda films or a master of world cinema? A famous heartbreaker or a cold, calculating mind? A selfish person lost in his fears—or an outstanding scientific thinker?
The book gives readers the opportunity to think, admire, be horrified, fall in love, or feel antipathy—and sometimes, simply laugh. Exactly the range of emotions Eisenstein caused in those who had the chance to encounter him in real life.
