Book excerpt: May 24, 1941: Alexeï Berg, a classical pianist, is set to perform his first solo concert in Moscow. But just before his début, his parents -- his father a renowned playwright, and his mother a famed opera singer -- are exposed for their political indiscretions and held under arrest. With World War II on the brink, and fearing that his own entrapment is not far behind, Alexeï flees to the countryside, assumes the identity of a Soviet soldier, and falls dangerously in love with a general officer's daughter. What follows is a two-decades-long journey through war and peace, love and betrayal, art and artifice -- a rare ensemble in the making of the music of a life.

Book excerpt: The Guzun Bratva family is wrought with enigmatic members. Some were taken into the heart of the matriarch, only to betray the trust she had in them. This is Andrei’s story—the man who Zafira took in as a son and the one who broke the heart of her daughter, Vanya. Andrei Balan Once upon a time ... too many stories start with those words—fairy tales, all of them! So, who would’ve thought that mine fell into that category? Not me, the now-undisputed Pakhan of the largest and cruelest Bratva in Russia. For years, I was mastered by puppeteers. I played their game. How else? It was the only way to achieve my goal. The time has come to rewrite history and finally take charge of my own life. No matter who ends up as collateral damage—even her, Vanya Guzun, the only woman who could have made me happy—under different circumstances, and at another time, in another place. Vanya Guzun And they lived happily ever after ... only fairy tales ended with those words. Once, I thought mine would too, until he died. Or rather, he faked his own death. Fate played the Joker card and turned my life into a living hell. No more. It’s time to take control of my own life. Andrei Balan, aka Smirnoff, my once true love, made himself my worst enemy. Two can play the game. I know just how to even the playing field. Amidst a raging Mafia war that shook the entire EU, these two people struggled to survive. With the fragile shard of trust shattered between them, would hate pave the path of their future? In the end, only one thing mattered… Who will survive the wrath of a man finally taking control of his own destiny? This series must be read in order, because if you thought you knew how it's going to end ... you're wrong.

Book Synopsis Andrei Tarkovsky by : Lyudmila Boyadzhieva
Download or read book Andrei Tarkovsky written by Lyudmila Boyadzhieva and published by Glagoslav Publications. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrei Tarkovsky died in a Paris hospital in 1986, aged just 54. An internationally acclaimed icon of the film industry, the legacy Tarkovsky left for his fans included Andrei Rublev, Stalker, Nostalgia and a host of other brilliant works. In the Soviet Union, however, Tarkovsky was a persona non grata. Longing to be accepted in his homeland, Tarkovsky distanced himself from all forms of political and social engagement, yet endured one fiasco after another in his relations with the Soviet regime. The Soviet authorities regarded the law-abiding, ideologically moderate Tarkovsky as an outsider and a nuisance, due to his impenetrable personal nature. The documentary novel A Life on the Cross provides a unique insight into the life of Andrey Tarkovsky, the infamous film director and a man whose life was by no means free of unedifying behaviour and errors of judgement. Lyudmila Boyadzhieva sets out to reveal his innate talent, and explain why the cost of such talent can sometimes be life itself.
Download or read book Andrei Rublev written by Robert Bird and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrei Tarkovsky (1932-1986) was one of the great poets of world cinema. A fiercely independent artist, Tarkovsky crafted poignantly beautiful films that have proven inscrutable and been bitterly disputed. These qualities are present in abundance in Andrei Rublev (1966), Tarkovsky's first fully mature film. Ostensibly a biographical study of Russia's most famous medieval icon-painter, Andrei Rublev is both lyrical and epic, starkly naturalistic and allegorical, authentically historical and urgently topical. While much remains mysterious in Andrei Rublev, critics have recently begun to reappraise it as a groundbreaking film that undermines comfortable notions of life and spirituality. Robert Bird's multifaceted account of Andrei Rublev extends this reevaluation of Tarkovsky's radical aesthetic by establishing the film's historical context and presenting a substantially new reading of key scenes. Bird definitively establishes the film's tortured textual history, which has resulted in two vastly different versions. He relates the film to traditions in Russian art and intellectual history, but finally his analysis focuses on Andrei Rublev as a visual and narrative artwork that treats profound existential questions by challenging conventional notions of representation and vision.

Download or read book Andrei Bitov written by Ellen Chances and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-11-11 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on Andrei Bitov, one of contemporary Russia's most original writers. It plots his evolution from his early publications of the post-Stalin years to his mature masterpieces of the glasnost era. Ellen Chances assesses his place both in the Russian literary tradition from Pushkin onwards, and as part of a broader, international cultural heritage including Dickens, Fellini, and Proust. She explores his themes, from the psychological effects of Stalin on Soviet society to universal questions such as the human being's relationship with nature, history and culture, and discovers in his deeply philosophical and intensely psychological writings an innovative methodology, 'ecological prose', that goes beyond modernist and post-modernist fragmentation in search of the wholeness of life.

Book excerpt: I, Andrei is a story of generational conflict. Andrei Luchowski is the son of Polish immigrants, refugees from the devastation of Hitler's Europe. Andrei's father wants his son to enjoy the prosperous life that he, Henryk Luchowski, has created for his family in this wonderful America. However, when his best friend dies in Vietnam, Andrei joins the US Army, intending to make amends to his dead friend, an Army draftee. Henryk lashes out at Andrei, creating an estrangement that continues for many years. Andrei completes a difficult deployment to Panama, where he participates in chemical weapons research. Filled with bitterness, he does not return home to mend fences. Instead, he buys a motorcycle and rides it across the country to California, in search of something that he is unable to define. There, he encounters a woman—a prostitute who struggles daily to provide food and shelter for her small daughter. He follows her to Santa Fe, New Mexico, seeking answers to the many questions that he has about his life.
Book Synopsis Andrei Tarkovsky’s Poetics of Cinema by : Thomas Redwood
Download or read book Andrei Tarkovsky’s Poetics of Cinema written by Thomas Redwood and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “If you look for a meaning, you’ll miss everything that happens.” Almost twenty-five years after the death of Andrei Tarkovsky, the mystery of his films remains alive and well. Recent years have witnessed an ever-increasing number of film theorists, critics and philosophers taking up the challenge to decipher what these films actually mean. But what do these films actually show us? In this study Thomas Redwood undertakes a close formal analysis of Tarkovsky’s later films. Charting the stylistic and narrative innovations in Mirror, Stalker, Nostalghia and The Sacrifice, Redwood succeeds in shedding new light on these celebrated but often misunderstood masterpieces of narrative film. Tarkovsky is revealed here both as a cinematic thinker and as an artistic practitioner, a filmmaker of immense poetic significance for the history of cinema.

Book Synopsis A Reader's Guide to Andrei Bely's "Petersburg" by : Leonid Livak
Download or read book A Reader's Guide to Andrei Bely's "Petersburg" written by Leonid Livak and published by University of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrei Bely's 1913 masterwork Petersburg is widely regarded as the most important Russian novel of the twentieth century. Vladimir Nabokov ranked it with James Joyce's Ulysses, Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, and Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time. Few artistic works created before the First World War encapsulate and articulate the sensibility, ideas, phobias, and aspirations of Russian and transnational modernism as comprehensively. Bely expected his audience to participate in unraveling the work's many meanings, narrative strains, and patterns of details. In their essays, the contributors clarify these complexities, summarize the intellectual and artistic contexts that informed Petersburg's creation and reception, and review the interpretive possibilities contained in the novel. This volume will aid a broad audience of Anglophone readers in understanding and appreciating Petersburg.

Book Synopsis The D Programming Language by : Andrei Alexandrescu
Download or read book The D Programming Language written by Andrei Alexandrescu and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 2010-06-02 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D is a programming language built to help programmers address the challenges of modern software development. It does so by fostering modules interconnected through precise interfaces, a federation of tightly integrated programming paradigms, language-enforced thread isolation, modular type safety, an efficient memory model, and more. The D Programming Language is an authoritative and comprehensive introduction to D. Reflecting the author’s signature style, the writing is casual and conversational, but never at the expense of focus and pre¿cision. It covers all aspects of the language (such as expressions, statements, types, functions, contracts, and modules), but it is much more than an enumeration of features. Inside the book you will find In-depth explanations, with idiomatic examples, for all language features How feature groups support major programming paradigms Rationale and best-use advice for each major feature Discussion of cross-cutting issues, such as error handling, contract programming, and concurrency Tables, figures, and “cheat sheets” that serve as a handy quick reference for day-to-day problem solving with D Written for the working programmer, The D Programming Language not only introduces the D language—it presents a compendium of good practices and idioms to help both your coding with D and your coding in general.
