Extract

On January 28th, 1956, the 75th anniversary of Fedor Dostoevsky's death, the world of literature honored his memory. The occasion suggested to me the idea of reconstructing the history of the production of The Brothers Karamazov at the Moscow Art Theater, in 1911. For a number of years I was closely connected with this theatrical institution as executive assistant to Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko, director and co-founder with Constantine Stanislavsky of the Art Theater, and this memoir is based on my conversations with him in addition to my personal recollections of the play.
