About This Novel

This book contains more than 160 poems by the famous Russian Silver Age poet Khodashevich. Hodasevich was a benchmark poet in the first wave of Russian diaspora literature. Gorky called him the best poet of the "Silver Age" and made no secret of drawing literary nourishment from his poems. Nabokov claimed that it was because of Hodasevich's poems that he was able to escape from the dilemma of being a talented poet. Bely, Brodsky and others all spoke highly of his unusual poetic thinking and poetic skills. Hodasiewicz's poems are particularly good at psychological description, but also contain philosophical and ethical elements.
