The England team that touched down in Russia for the 2018 World Cup was a new-look outfit: there were no real stars, no overblown egos and no dickheads. Still reeling from the wincing exit to Iceland in the 2016 Euros, expectations were at an all-time low. Qualification had been smooth if not spectacular, and pundits and fans alike were lukewarm about the team’s chances. Just avoiding embarrassment would have counted as some kind of success. How wrong we were.

È il 1975 quando Jan Brokken rimane folgorato da San Pietroburgo, l'allora Leningrado, patria splendente e malinconica di poeti e dissidenti, folli e geni, disperati e amanti, culla della ribellione agli zar e poi al regime sovietico in nome della libertà dell'arte e dello spirito. In occasione del centenario della Rivoluzione d'Ottobre, Brokken ci accompagna nelle sue passeggiate fra presente e passato attraverso strade, teatri, case e musei sulle tracce dei personaggi che hanno reso Pietroburgo una capitale mitica della cultura europea.
