寶琳娜·西濛斯(Paullina Simons),齣生、成長於列寜格勒。20世紀70年代全傢移居美國。她的《塔利》(Tully)、《紅葉》(Red Leaves)、《十一個小時》(Eleven Hours)及《青銅騎士》都是國際暢銷書。她曾在羅馬、倫敦、達拉斯居住,現定居紐約。她的一個孩子亦以《青銅騎士》的女主角“塔季雅娜”命名。
The golden skies, the translucent twilight, the white nights, all hold the promise of youth, of love, of eternal renewal. The war has not yet touched this city of fallen grandeur, or the lives of two sisters, Tatiana and Dasha Metanova, who share a single room in a cramped apartment with their brother and parents. Their world is turned upside down when Hitler's armies attack Russia and begin their unstoppable blitz to Leningrad. Yet there is light in the darkness. Tatiana meets Alexander, a brave young officer in the Red Army. Strong and self-confident, yet guarding a mysterious and troubled past, he is drawn to Tatiana—and she to him. Starvation, desperation, and fear soon grip their city during the terrible winter of the merciless German siege. Tatiana and Alexander's impossible love threatens to tear the Metanova family apart and expose the dangerous secret Alexander so carefully protects—a secret as devastating as the war itself—as the lovers are swept up in the brutal tides that will change the world and their lives forever.

評分至此本詩仍是一首對彼得大帝、聖彼得堡乃至整個俄羅斯的頌歌。而這首頌歌也為與後文中聖彼得堡陷入天災的慘象做對比進行瞭鋪墊。
評分唯一能夠把你我分開的,隻有死亡-----塔季雅娜 1941年6月。列寜格勒。二十二歲的亞曆山大第一次遇到即將十七歲的塔季雅娜。他看到她穿著笨拙緊綳的棉布裙,嘗著渴望良久的冰淇淋,愜意得打轉轉。他的目光穿過喧囂的車流,盯著這個可人的姑娘,一眼就認定。這是六月一個美麗的...
