Russian poets have always been admired for the lyric and emotional intensity with which they forge private and public experience into verse, and this volume gathers together some of the best-loved, and most powerful and immediate poems from the greatest Russian poets of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Here is the work of Alexander Pushkin, Mikhail Lermontov, Alexander Blok, Andrei Bely, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Ivan Bunin, Osip Mandelstam, Anna Akhmatova, Marina Tsvetaeva, Boris Pasternak, and Joseph Brodsky, among many others. Arranged by theme--love, mortality, art, and the enduring mystery of Mother Russia herself--and presented in the best available translations, these poems will serve as both an introduction to the mastery of Russian poetry and a wide-ranging selection to be returned to again and again.… (más)
A Bible for lovers of Russian poetry (in English).
All the major poems, and some delicate blooms from the forgotten byways. Ranges from The Golden Age of Pushkin and Lermontov, The Silver Age of Blok and Akhmatova, The High Soviet period with Tsvetaeva, Pasternak and Mandelstam, and The Late Soviet period of the incomparable Brodsky and the late and greatly lamented Voznesensky.
Translators include Nabokov, D.M. Thomas, McDuff, C.M. Bowra (yes him!) and Stallworthy and France.
Beautifully presented in the Everyman's Library Pocket Poet's series (totally brilliant idea). Small enough to slip in your jacket pocket, hardcover, in gorgeous red linen, thick creamy paper, and red ribbon marker.
