"Plisetskaya. Element named Maya" - a portrait of Maya Mikhailovna Plisetskaya on the background of the era, or rather, different eras, because she happened to live in several. It would seem that so much has been written, filmed and told about Plisetskaya, but the author managed to make a number of discoveries. You will learn what passions, hopes and doubts raged in the soul of the great ballerina: her relationship with her husband Rodion Shchedrin, Yuri Grigorovich and Galina Ulanova. In the book you can hear the voices of those who worked, socialized and were friends with the ballerina: Rodion Shchedrin, Valentin Elizariev, Boris Akimov, Yuri Vladimirov, Mikhail Lavrovsky, Lyudmila Semenyaka, Natalia Kasatkina, Boris Messerer, Viktor Barykin, Valery Lagunov and others. In addition to exclusive interviews taken by the author personally, work was also done in the archive of the Russian State Library of Arts, the library of the Bakhrushin Theater Museum. Bakhrushin, where Maya Mikhailovna's notebooks are kept, as well as in the Bolshoi Theater Museum. These materials and publications are a cast of the times in which Plisetskaya lived and created, and thanks to these invaluable documents we have the opportunity to see how not only the language of her interviews and articles, but also her views changed.
