The Russian poet Osip Mandelstam wrote these lines about Stalin. Not surprisingly, he was arrested for it. Between his arrest and his eventual death in a labour camp, he and his wife Nadezhda spent a twilight life in Russia as outcasts of the Soviet regime. She preserved her husband's life and talent as long as it was humanly possible to do so. More, she preserved his poetry and, indeed, herself: for she still lives in Moscow, and it is her story that is told tonight. with Betty Hardy as Nadezhda Mandelstam ALAN BARRY , KATE BINCHY, JOHN FORREST, NIGEL GRAHAM,
