All of Faina Georgievna Ranevskaya’s manuscripts are kept in the Russian State Archive of Literature. In these texts—often written by Ranevskaya for herself—the great actress appears in a different guise. Comedy yields to drama. The listener gets the chance to lift the curtain and peek into where real life for an actor is lived. We hope that the audiobook “To upset you. Never to offend you” will help you learn more about the complicated fate of this brilliant and unlike anyone else actress.
