The book “Dream of Passion” tells about the intimate relationships that connected three remarkable people of Russia at the beginning of the last century: Alexander Blok, Lyubov Mendeleeva-Blok and Andrei Bely. The events of their purely personal side of life, closed to others, but instructive for every person, helped us today to recreate the diaries, memories, and correspondence they left behind. Blok summed up this sometimes happy, sometimes tragic intertwining of their destinies: “Lyuba ruined so many years of my life, tortured me and brought me to what I am now. <…> But 1898–1902 made me unable to part with her and loving her.”
