"Whether romantic, realistic, surreal, mocking or blackly comic, poetry has been at the heart of Russian life and culture for centuries. This new anthology presents the best of Russian verse, from the 'Golden Age' of Pushkin and his contemporaries, through the symbolist Alexander Blok and twentieth-century masters such as Osip Mandelstam and Marina Tsvetaeva, and on to lesser-known and modern works."--Back cover.
