Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The narrative explores St Petersburg's rich history, founded by Peter the Great in 1703 as a gateway to Europe. Despite its challenging location, the city flourished into a cultural hub, especially during its Golden Age in the 1830s, marked by literary giants like Pushkin. The subsequent turmoil of famine, war, and revolution led to a Silver Age of artistic revival. Renamed Leningrad during the Soviet era, it faced challenges but ultimately revived post-Soviet Union. The book highlights its unparalleled musical heritage and the lasting influence of figures like Dostoyevsky.
