What can an Italian tell us about Russia's greatest poetess?
Anna Akhmatova—the one who, as Joseph Brodsky said, "with just a tone of voice or a turn of the head, transformed you into Homo sapiens." A woman who survived two world wars and became Russia's most popular voice during difficult times.

She suffered, as souls suffer, who, even when they give in, never give in. She never stopped writing, even when her poems could only be passed on by word of mouth. At the end of her life, she became what she wanted—the greatest poetess of her time.

Paolo Nori, the renowned Italian writer, author of numerous translations from Russian, and professor at the University of Milan, will tell the story of this truly remarkable woman.
