Afternoon Play: The Lost Journals of Marina Tsvetayeva

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Marina Tsvetayeva (1892-1941) was one of the most distinctive poets in the Russian language and a contemporary of Boris Pasternak. But in a life wracked by the Russian Revolution, she found herself an exile from her own language, suffering even the loss of her journals to explain her journey. They are re-imagined for radio by Alan Pascoe and Diana Quick stars as Marina Tsvetayeva.
