The Silver Age was the "second birth" period of Russian literature in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Amid the turmoil of the current situation and under the influence of modernism, poets introduced novel words rich in multiple connotations into poetry, discovering the beauty of unfamiliarity and complexity, reflecting their concern for the meaning of existence. Yesenin, Tsvetaeva, Blok, Bunin, Akhmatova, Mayakovsky, etc. All left outstanding works during this period. This book selects and translates 201 love poems from 32 poets of the Silver Age.
