The outstanding actress Alla Demidova, who has repeatedly performed the works of Anna Akhmatova on stage, once decided to investigate the secret writing of one of the most mysterious works of Russian literature - “Poems without a Hero.” It contains... encrypted names and events, without knowing about which the reader is unlikely to be able to penetrate the depth of the text and understand its true meaning. What kind of people are hidden behind the fictitious names of the characters, what are their relationships, how are the events described related to real historical phenomena - A. Demidova gives her answer to these questions. The actress admits that she “sifted through” letters, poems, diary entries, memoirs of the poet, and the memories of his contemporaries. And this work, which provided rich material for reflection, resulted in the book “Akhmatov’s Mirrors.”
