I’ve enjoyed a couple of Turgenev novels (Home of the Gentry & Fathers & Sons) and I plan on reading other titles starting in 2011. It seemed like a good time to move into a Turgenev bio, so I picked up Henri Troyat’s study of Turgenev to get the details. Troyat (real name Lev Tarasov) was born in Russia in 1911, but the family left in 1920 and settled in Paris. When dealing with some aspect of Russian history (and Troyat does discuss certain names and beliefs in this book), it’s a good idea to know where the author stands on the subject of 19th century Russian politics.
Troyat was a prolific author and produced over a vast number of books before his death in 2007. One of his specialties was the biography. His Russian subjects include:
Dostoevsky
Pushkin
Tolstoy
Pasternak
Gogol
Gorky
Turgenev
Apart from covering a fair number of 19th century Russian authors, Troyat also tackled monarch biographies and later in his writing career moved onto the French giants of literature including: Balzac, Maupassant, Flaubert and Zola.

| Alexander Pushkin, Master Teacher of Dance, Part One of a Book Review For time reasons, this review will be split into several parts. At the end, I shall copy out one or two of Pushkins classes, as it would be useful to have comments from persons more knowledgeable than I. A more elaborate version of this review will eventually appear on the Vestris site. Review Begins Reams have been said and written about Agrippina Vaganova, rather less about Alexander Pushkin who, some would say, was equally, if not more influential, in the Twentieth Century. However, in the year 2001, the New York Public Library published a book entitled Alexander Pushkin, Master Teacher of Dance, by Gennady Albert. So worthwhile is the book that, indeed, I have read it three times, and would need to read it again. I also wonder why it has not been more discussed. The only reason that might perhaps explain the silence, may be that, as dancers retire ever younger these days, they | |
