Anna Akhmatova (1889 – 1966) is one of the most talented poets of the twentieth century, but a poet of tragic fate: censorship, persecution, silence for decades, a sharp criticism in the 1946 decree, an exclusion from the Writers’ Union. Many works were not published after the death of the poet for more than two decades.
Since the end of the twenties, Akhmatova “diligently” and “with great interest” began to study the life and work of Pushkin.
The book includes poems of different years, including those who were not included in poetic books during the life of the poet, articles about Pushkin, about Lermontov, about Dante, memories of A. Blok, M. Lozinsky, A. Modigliani, about contemporaries – M. Tsvetaeva, B. Pasternak, I. Annensky, O. Mandelstam, as well as autobiographical prose. The book was published on the 125th anniversary of A. A. Akhmatova.
