It's no coincidence that at the beginning of the 20th century, Marina Tsvetaeva called Akhmatova 'the Anna of All Rus',' and critics dubbed her 'the Russian Sappho': the celebrated poetess seems to embody all of Russian poetry. Her lyric poetry and her life reflect almost the entire twentieth century—from the misty Silver Age to the turbulent 1960s 'Thaw.' 'What interested her most was whether the poet, whether poetry, Russian poetry, speaks the language of its time,' Joseph Brodsky wrote of Akhmatova. She herself succeeded in becoming the voice of several generations, choosing the most apt words to express the spirit of the era. To this day, Anna Akhmatova's lyrical poetry continues to disturb and captivate readers. This book presents selected poems and verses, autobiographical prose, and reviews of Anna Akhmatova by her contemporaries.
