You Never Dreamed

The story of Soviet Romeo and Juliet—Roma and Katya—captured the hearts of millions of schoolchildren in the late 1980s. The novella “You Were Never Meant to Dream It,” thanks to the film of the same name, instantly made its author famous—Galina Shcherbakova—and without exaggeration became her calling card. Despite such stunning success, the writer herself didn’t like her book and often said she had even stronger, deeper works. Still, for more than thirty years, the enduring interest of readers in this novella speaks for itself. We hope the audiobook version of this legendary work will meet with the same success.
