Lidii︠a︡ Korneevna Chukovskai︠a︡

Milena Michalski

Sylva Rubashova

Lydia Chukovskaya and Anna Akhmatova were brought together by a common tragedy (both had lost loved ones in the purges of the 1930s) and by a common passion for literature. The journals are excerpts from Chukovskaya's diaries kept at great risk to herself and to those about whom she wrote, but now to be published in Moscow to celebrate the centenary of Akhmatova's birth.

The Akhmatova Journals: 1938-41

Lydia Chukovskaya
