Více o knize
The book explores the harrowing experiences during the German siege of Leningrad through the eyes of Mosej and Antonina, a couple who choose to stay in the Hermitage Museum instead of seeking shelter. Their initial lightheartedness, filled with poetry and art, contrasts sharply with the encroaching despair of cold and starvation. As their voices fade, the narrative shifts to documented accounts of the siege, highlighting the tension between personal suffering and historical record. Barskova's work is a poignant reflection on survival amidst tragedy.
