Leo Tolstoy's wife Sophia Andreyevna (1844-1919) became no less legendary than he himself even during her husband's lifetime. Newspapers wrote about her, she was filmed by the pioneer of Russian cinematography Alexander Drankov, her image was captured in the first feature films about the life of the "great Leo". And today her figure attracts biographers, filmmakers and theater figures. She lived with Tolstoy for almost half a century, gave birth to thirteen children, was his faithful friend and literary assistant. But it was because of the conflict with his wife that Tolstoy fled Yasnaya Polyana in 1910. Writer and journalist, winner of the prize "Big Book" Pavel Basinsky decided to write a book about Sophia Tolstoy in an unusual format - online dialogues with poet and prose writer from St. Petersburg Ekaterina Barbanyaga. Two views - a man and a woman. Two points of view on the fate of the great wife of the great writer.
