The cultural heritage of the Country of Soviets is not fully understood to this day. But, of course, an invaluable part of Soviet culture is its beautiful half. This book is a tribute to the memory and respect of wonderful women who forever left a mark in the history of Russian art. It contains eight literary portraits, unique also because the author was familiar with many of his heroines. Elena Dobronravova and Tatyana Samoilova, Kyunna Ignatova and Natalya Kustinskaya, Tatyana Lavrova and Regina Zbarskaya, Ninel Myshkova and Victoria Fedorova - all of them are connected not only by extraordinary beauty and talent, but also by the special drama of fate.
