This is a powerful collection of fifteen memoirs by and about the great poet of the Silver Age of Russian literature. Here are reminiscences that open a window into the Russian literary scene from pre-revolutionary days through the Stalin years and up to the short-lived Kruschev "thaw." The book includes pieces by Akhmatova's husband, the poet Nikolai Gumilev, Alexandr Blok, and Osip Mandelstham. Several of Akhmatova's personal observations and poems about her own life and the life of her beloved Russia are also included.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ANNA AKHMATOVA & HER CIRCLE (Paperback)
Akhmatova is an extremely interesting woman, totally devoted to her country and her poetry - and for me this book also gave me a history lesson for that time period in Russian history.
