Igor Stravinskij byl ruský skladatel, klavírista a dirigent, považovaný za jednoho z nejvýznamnějších a nejvlivnějších skladatelů 20. století. Jeho dílo je kosmopolitní a ovlivnilo hudební svět. Navzdory svému uznání za skladby se proslavil také jako klavírista a dirigent. Ve své autobiografii vyjádřil názor, že hudba sama o sobě nedokáže nic vyjádřit.

Život a názory významného skladatele. Autobiografická publikace z poloviny 30. let 20. století.
Petruška, hadrový panáček, hraje v loutkovém divadle na jarmarce v Petrohradě podle záměru nehodného loutkáře úlohu šaška pro zábavu publika, ačkoli se mu líbí balerína Holubička, jež tančí s Mouřenínem. Petruškova vzpoura proti tomuto osudu končí jeho smrtí. Ale umírá jen jeho hadrové tělo a jeho duch jako symbol odporu proti zvůli a násilí žije dál.
