Unique, without exaggeration, historical material! Where, if not in letters to our loved ones, can we fully open up and be ourselves? In letters to her friend Esther Itskovich, who lives in Baku, Ranevskaya was completely sincere. Firstly, they had known each other for a very long time and there was complete trust between them. Secondly, having dreamed of becoming an actress in her youth, Esther was interested in everything that happened in the world of theater. Ranevskaya could be completely frank with her, because she knew that everything said between them would remain between them. Faina Ranevskaya had few close friends. In addition, most of her friends belonged to the acting world and it was not possible to be frank with them on all topics. The letters cover the period from 1931 to 1974. Reading them, it’s as if we are living together with the great actress, her such a difficult and such a bright life. Her thoughts and plans, her achievements and disappointments, her attitude towards different people... Each letter is a kind of revelation. You have never known such a Ranevskaya!
