Composers in Literature

[Alexandra Smith]

Dear Janneke,

You might wish to include into your list Vladimir Odoevsky's story  
"Poslednii kvartet Betkhovena" (1830); Aleksandr Grin's story "Sila  
nepostizhimogo" (1918), and two long stories penned by Iurii Nagibin —  
"Rakhmaninov" and "Chaikovskii"- included into his book VECHNYE  
SPUTNIKI (1972-79). The story about Tchaikovsky was turned into a film  
script later on.

All best,
Alexandra
