On the 100th anniversary of Maya Plisetskaya's birth, a book is published that will be an event for all who love art, history, and inspiring destinies. Maya Plisetskaya was the embodiment of an element — a bird born to fly.... Her name became synonymous with grace, strength, and beauty. This book is a tender and touching tribute to the great ballerina. The reader will experience the story of the triumph of a prima who conquered the whole world, and of a girl whom love from her aunt and the magic of ballet saved from an orphanage. A candid, heartfelt account of a woman who had to go through fear, pain, and trials at the very beginning of her life journey. Memories of the family that saved the future star, of her first performance, and her debut before the audience turned around, performed in harsh evacuation in Sverdlovsk. A special place in the narration is occupied by Rodion Shchedrin — the great composer, husband, friend, ally, and the only support. Their union lasted for over half a century, serving as an example of rare harmony and loyalty. This love warmed and supported Maya more than the most thunderous applause. The book is for all who believe in the miracle of ballet and treasure her regal posture and victorious gaze in their memory.
