Mathilde Kschessinska. Muse of the Last Romanovs

Mathilde Kschessinska was a highly talented ballerina, the prima of the Imperial Theater. The life of this remarkable woman resembles an exciting novel: if she had not met Nicholas II in her youth, her fate might have turned out differently. But that meeting took place… The book by poet and writer Elena Litvinskaya will tell about what Mathilde Kschessinska was like, how she lived her life spanning a century. The edition is supplemented with quotes from the memories of her contemporaries and Kschessinska herself, as well as a large number of photographs.
