The New Review: Agenda: FROM THE ARCHIVE: 9 December 1962: Rudolf Nureyev's moving journal reveals a man at odds with Russia and himself, writes Edward Crankshaw
That made him not a turbulent young artist in search of himself, but a deserter - betraying his country and bringing grief to parents and old friends. [Rudolf Nureyev] does not say much about the Soviet Union. We could have done with more detail about life within the Kirov company.
