of Russia and Europe, a tale of how the soul of an artist hides behind a mask. In his autobiography, Chaliapin talks about his difficult life, his path to the big stage, what prompted him to make this choice, how he developed on stage, and shares his thoughts on his homeland, theater, opera, the Bolsheviks, and fellow countrymen. The thoughts of the great singer about performances in Russia and abroad, as well as impressions from meetings with Lenin and Trotsky, Gorky and Tolstoy, Repin and Serov, H.G. Wells and Bernard Shaw, are particularly interesting. This edition includes two main works by Chaliapin - the autobiography and the one published in 1932, already in emigration, - "Mask and Soul," in which the singer spoke about his relations with the Bolsheviks.
