Ekaterina Kubryakova's "Voices from Windows" series has already become a benchmark for books about St. Petersburg.
This time, the author, awarded the Antsiferov Prize for her contribution to St. Petersburg local history, offers a journey beyond the city's elliptical boundaries. All that remains is to accept the invitation.

- Follow Repin's studio, where the artist exchanged barbs with Mayakovsky.
- Read Olenina's diary entries to learn the details of her passionate and fleeting affair with Pushkin.
- Visit Yelagin Island to witness Masonic rituals and discover the truth about the Italian sorcerer Count Cagliostro—was he a magician or a charlatan?

The new edition delves even deeper into the destinies of the great. But not only through words: engravings, museum portraits, and photographs of architectural masterpieces complete the picture of a bygone imperial era.
