In this captivating autobiography, anthroposophical artist, Margarita Woloschin, paints a vivid picture of her privileged upbringing in Russia at the end of the nineteenth century. She records her meetings with the Russian intellectual elite, including Tolstoy, her extensive travels throughout Europe and her marriage to the journalist-poet Max Voloshin.

Instrumental in the introduction of anthroposophy into Russia, Woloschin recounts the construction of the original Goetheanum in Dornach, Switzerland, and its ultimate destruction. She shares her personal memories of Rudolf Steiner and the struggle for meaning in her own turbulent life. Returning to Russia during the First World War, she details the harsh deprivations of the Russian Revolution and its effects on her family and friends.

Set against the extremes of tsarist Russia and the Bolshevik Revolution, this haunting historical memoir is testament to a fascinating and inspirational life.
