| Alphabet of Masks Publication Date: September 20, 2011Alphabet of Masks is a collection of short stories and poems written on a mobile phone. It is an imaginative foray into the modern-day Russian experience. Dmitri Birman shows us how today's Russians straddle their Soviet past and their capitalist future in order to survive. The stories are wry, humorous, and sexually frank; the poems lyrical and elegiac about the narrator and his friends. The anti-Semitic reality of school bullies and army conscription, the adolescent yearning for classmates and teaching assistants, the Soviet dream of world travel and lux...

| Anatomical Theater (In the Grip of Strange Thoughts) Publication Date: December 11, 2012| Series: In the Grip of Strange Thoughts Few of Andrei Sen-Senkov's patients and colleagues know of his status as one of Russia's better-known contemporary poets, but he doesn't lose much sleep over this. Indeed, in person Sen-Senkov exhibits none of the pathos of the Inspired Lyricist. He is just as likely to complain about the weather, bemoan the latest political or natural disaster, or exclaim breathlessly over a newly discovered jazz musician as he is to discuss poetry. And when you read his poems, it all makes sense: for Sen-Senkov, anything can be po...

| Alexander Vvedensky: An Invitation For Me To Think Release Date: April 2, 2013Alexander Vvedensky, co-founder with the poet Daniil Kharms of OBERIU, a small avant-garde collective in late-1920s Soviet Leningrad, is the least known of major Russian twentieth-century poets. He stands apart like a dark star in a constellation that includes Mandelstam, Akhmatova, Pasternak, Tsvetaeva, Mayakovsky, and Khlebnikov. Younger than these poets by a decade, Vvedensky came of age under the Soviet system, when the language used to describe reality appeared to have lost all literal meaning. He saw his task to be “the poetic critique of reason” ...

| The Acmeist Movement in Russian Poetry: Culture and the Word (Oxford Modern Languages & Literature Monographs) Publication Date: June 29, 1995| Series: Oxford Modern Languages & Literature Monographs Acmeism is chiefly known through the three leading Russian poets--Nikolai Gumilev, Ann Akhmatova, and Osip Mandel'shtam--each of whom are discussed here, along with less well-known Acmeists, in the first extensive study in English of the movement. Doherty's fascinating study shows how early twentieth-century Acmeism developed into a specific way of thinking about poetry and the Russian literary tradition, and how this thinking evolved out of poetry criticism as practiced in the main Acmeist forum, Tsekh ...

| Wind of the Journey Publication Date: May 2000Irina Ratushinskaya will forever be known as the poet who was arrested for her writing, sentanced to a Soviet prison camp. And who continued in the face of persecution to write new poems. She wrote them on bars of soap, memorised them, and then washed away the 'evidence'. Irina is a recognised poet in both the International community and the United States. Many of Irina's poems have the earmarks of a well-seasoned traveller: and eagerness for adventure, melancholy good-byes, and a faith forged from life's journey. ...
