When she decides to auction her remarkable jewelry collection, Nina Revskaya, once a great star of the Bolshoi ballet, believes she has drawn a curtain on her past. Instead, the aged dancer finds herself overwhelmed by memories of her homeland and of the events—both glorious and heartbreaking—that changed the course of her life half a century before.
Lianne from Eclectictales.com reviewed this book earlier this year. The cover caught my eye and her review was really positive. Reading it was about Russia, ballet, Stalin and a lot of history I was sold.
