A beautifully translated book of contemporary Russian poets',
By A Customer
This review is from: In The Grip of Strange Thoughts: Russian Poetry in a New Era (Russian Edition) (Paperback)
Zephyr Press, which gave us the superb Complete Poetry of Anna Achmatova, offers us a comprehensive feast of contemporary Russian poetry, with a fascinating introduction. The poetry is bittersweet, reflecting and expressing the soul of a nation changing radically from decade to decade. Many thanks to this hard-working, indefatigable small press for continuing to offer us these books.

Dull,
By empty pockets (New Orleans, LA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In The Grip of Strange Thoughts: Russian Poetry in a New Era (Russian Edition) (Paperback)
Perhaps I was expecting too much given the rich tradition of Russian poetry. But the poets in this anthology seem to have been selected for their dissident credentials more than the quality of their poetry, which is uninspiring and flat.
