From BAM: "Set against the sweeping backdrop of twentieth-century Russia and featuring music by Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, and Shostakovich, Akhmatova: The Heart Is Not Made of Stone tells of the meeting of two cultural giants: the Russian poet Anna Akhmatova and the British philosopher Isaiah Berlin. Tinged with romance and risk, their relationship had repercussions that plunged the two ever deeper into one of the darkest periods in human history."
