The book about the stunning Faina Ranevskaya was written by the famous film journalist Gleb Skorokhodov. Thanks to their long-term friendship, the author managed to preserve the image of an extraordinary woman who knew how, like no one else, to see life itself through the prism of sparkling humor. The book contains everything: conversations, letters, notes about roles in theater and cinema, funny stories and many rare photographs of the great actress, listed among the ten outstanding actresses of the 20th century.
