La scoperta ci accarezza il cuore, è il filo che attraversa lo spazio e il tempo, le radici che ci tengono ben saldi alla terra. Quella che scopriamo in noi non è la madre che abbiamo avuto, ma la donna che è stata. Scrivere una lettera è quello di cui abbiamo tutti bisogno, a un certo punto. Per fare pace con la madre. Per riconoscerle il diritto di essere stata donna.

Manchmal gebären die widrigsten und unmöglichsten Umstände, die man schlicht nicht erfinden kann, einen Autoren, dessen Literatur den Menschen den Atem verschlägt. Der unmögliche Fall, der so absurd klingt, dass er nur wahr sein kann. Ständige Geldnöte, Verurteilung zum Tode, mehrjährige Gefängnisstrafe in angeketteter Einzelhaft, Verbot des Aufenthalts in Moskau und in Sankt Petersburg, Spielsucht, um ein paar der Schwierigkeiten zu erwähnen, welche das Schicksal letztendlich zu Voraussetzungen umwandelte, die Dostojewski in die Lage versetzten zu einem Titanen der Welt-Literatur zu werden.

В переписке между Лизой и Сашей оживают Петербург и деревня, балы и уединение, жемчуг воспитанности и искренняя самоирония. Пушкин с блеском показывает: настоящая любовь — в нюансах, паузах, недомолвках. Здесь чувства скрыты между строк, а судьба — в молчаливом выборе, сделанном не на глазах у света, а в тишине души.
