A detailed chronicle of Prokofiev's career from 1932 to 1953, based on exclusive and extensive research conducted at several Russian archives. Prokofiev's Soviet Years examines Prokofiev's decision to relocate to Stalin's Russia in 1936, the mandated rewriting of such major works as Romeo and Juliet and War and Peace, and the composer's aesthetic and spiritual views.
