El 26 de enero de 1936 el todopoderoso Isif Stalin asiste a una representacin de Lady Macbeth de Mtsensk de Dmitri Shostakvich en el Bolshoi de Mosc. Lo hace desde el palco reservado al gobierno y oculto tras una cortinilla. El compositor sabe que est all y se muestra intranquilo. Dos das despus aparece en Pravda un demoledor editorial que lo acusa de desviacionista y decadente. Un editorial aprobado o acaso escrito de su puo y letra por el propio Stalin. Son los aos del Gran Terror, y el msico sabe que una acusacin como sa puede significar la deportacin a Siberia o directamente la muerte. Pero Shostakvich sobrevive, compondr msica heroica y patritica durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y el rgimen comunista lo enviar como uno de sus representantes al Congreso Cultural y Cientfico por la Paz Mundial en Nueva York, donde repetir, sin salirse jams del guin, aquello que le dictan los comisarios polticos. La historia de Shostakvich y Stalin es un ejemplo particularmente desolador de las relaciones entre el arte y el poder. Uno de los ms grandes compositores del siglo XX adapt su arte a la esttica oficial, abjur de amigos y maestros, se postr ante el dictador para sobrevivir en un periodo en el que sus conocidos caan como moscas. l salv el pellejo y, ya muerto Stalin, acab consagrado como uno de los grandes creadores soviticos, pero por el camino dej una parte de su alma, de su dignidad y de su ambicin artstica. En esta breve novela, tan hermosa como terrible, Julian Barnes reconstruye la vida del msico los recuerdos de su infancia y su convulsa vida ntima, las relaciones con sus esposas, sus amantes y su hija, pero sobre todo aborda las dolorosas decisiones que tuvo que tomar en unos momentos histricos sombros, e indaga en el miedo y la culpa, en la dificultad de comportarse con honestidad en tiempos de barbarie, y en la difcil supervivencia del arte en esos aos aciagos.
