L. Kopylov, T. Pozdnyakova and N. Popova, ‘I eto bylo tak’: Anna Akhmatova i Isaiya Berlin [‘That’s How It Was’: Anna Akhmatova and Isaiah Berlin] (St Petersburg, 2009: The Anna Akhmatova Museum at Fountain House)

  • the dates of the 1945–6 meetings between AA and IB that IB wrote about are probably 15–16 November 1945 and 5 January 1946
  • this book claims that there were further visits, again lasting into the early hours, on 17–18 and either 18–19 or 19–20 November; and also a meeting on 2 January – making five meetings in all
  • IB never referred to any such additional meetings, but the evidence cited for them is not unpersuasive
