A lifetime ago, she was the vain, ambitious, impossibly charming \u003ci\u003eprima ballerina assoluta\u003c\/i\u003e of the tsar's Russian Imperial Ballet in St. Petersburg. Kschessinska's riveting storytelling soon thrusts us into a world lost to time: that great intersection of the Russian court and the Russian theater. Through Kschessinska's memories of her own triumphs and defeats, we witness the stories that changed history, from the seething beginnings of revolution to the end of a grand, decadent way of life that belonged to the nineteenth century. Based on fact, Adrienne Sharp's \u003ci\u003eThe True Memoirs of Little K\u003c\/i\u003e is \"an engrossing tale of love, loss, and history\" (\u003ci\u003eThe Wichita Eagle\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/25\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312610715\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.20w x 1.10d","brand":"Adrienne Sharp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36635928428700,"sku":"9780312610715","price":22.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_09cdb5c4-66a7-4b44-8af1-d72170fb073d.jpg?v=1603840918","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/true-memoirs-of-little-k-9780312610715","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
