Tarkovskys: Shards of the Mirror

"The daughter of poet Arseny Tarkovsky and sister of film director Andrei Tarkovsky writes about the history of the family, childhood, the fate of her parents, and the complex dialogue between father and son – Arseny and Andrei – which they engaged in throughout their lives. “I have come to the conviction that in my stories-memories I must speak the whole truth, no matter how bitter it may be. Shards, when you hold them in your hands, hurt painfully, but otherwise, you cannot piece together the mirror in front of which my loved ones lived their lives.” Marina Tarkovskaya. The book is illustrated with rare photographs from the family archive."
