Description
In parallel text, the first English language publication of one of the most moving and original Russian poems of recent years, by a winner of the Andrei Bely prize for poetry and the Premio Letterario Internazionale Ceppo Pistoia. Zavyalov’s work has been widely translated into other European languages.
A poet of St Petersburg returns to the Siege of Leningrad, where the fabric of a city seems to hold by a few worn threads, the voices of those who did or did not survive one of the defining events of the Second World War, which appears at times as a hunger-induced hallucination.
