There are three plays by Tom Stoppard about Herzen.

I saw them last year and I remember finding the subject matter daunting because it was so much complex material and still represented such an abbreviated, high-level view of his life and times!

Also, there's a huge amount of tragedy there.

The plays are a very good read with the added bonus that you can read at your own pace.
