Stikhotvoreniia i poemy [Poems]

Sergei Esenin is one of the most tragic Russian poets of the 20th century. It was he who expressed the tragedy, crying, confusion of the ancestral Russia, when in the seventeenth year the connection with its thousand-year history was interrupted. He is the most mysterious poet. A peasant son, for more than ten years (from the rapid entry into literature to the tragic death), he found himself in the center of culture. And today his poems touch the most painful strings of the Russian soul.

Pod laskoi pliushevogo pleda [Under the Caress of a Plush Blanket]

'I like that you are not sick with me ...', 'How many of them fell into this abyss ...', 'Under the caress of a plush blanket ...' - thanks to the cinema, these and many other poems became known to the general reader. Tsvetaeva's poetry is distinguished by unique female intonations, 'very Russian dialect,' as contemporaries said. Now melodious, now impetuous; sometimes fervent, then sad - her works are understandable and loved to this day.

Svecha gorela... [The Candle was Burning ...]

This edition presents the creative heritage of one of the greatest Russian poets, Nobel laureate Boris Leonidovich Pasternak (1890-1960). From the early 'frantic' verses, he went to the 'overwhelming simplicity' of the later lyrics. For many generations of readers, his works are loved as pure sound in the deafening noise of the era. According to Tsvetaeva, Pasternak will never have a 'square', but there will be 'a lot of lonely, lonely many thirsty, whom he, a secluded spring, watered.' The book includes selected poems by B. L. Pasternak of different years.

Volshebnyi fonar' [Magic Lantern]

There is no poet bigger than Tsvetaeva in our century,' Joseph Brodsky said about Marina Tsvetaeva. Not caring about the boundaries of what is permissible, Tsvetaeva allowed the spontaneous beginning into poetry. A stunning temperament combined with an unusual rhythmic variety are the hallmarks of Tsvetaeva's lyrics. One 'for all' and one 'against all'. She did not belong to any poetry school, did not recognize literary influences - only human ones. And, contrary to misunderstanding, loneliness and beggarly 'stopudova' life, always remained internally free. As Bella Akhmadulina wrote about her, 'she was the leader of her fate, and the armies of mind and spirit followed this leader.' The book includes selected poems by M. I. Tsvetaeva of different years.

Stikhotvoreniia [Poems]

I don?t like life as such,' wrote Marina Tsvetaeva, a great poet of the 20th century, 'for me it begins to mean, that is, to acquire meaning and weight, only transformed, that is, in art.' And only through the rigid optics of these confessions should one consider life, creativity, the fate of Tsvetaeva. She would write on a desert island, and on Mars, and in prison, and in a monastic cell. At one time, Andrei Bely felt deeper than others the singing nature of the poetess: 'And you, you are a bird! You sing!' After all, the birds do not die. They disappear in the August sky to return again and again in the spring.

Stikhotvoreniia [Poems]

Boris Leonidovich Pasternak (1890-1960) went into Russian poetry unnoticed. It seems that he was always in it. The proposed collection presents the poet?s favorites to the reader to show the movement from experiments with form to ?experiment? with thought. On an equal footing with well-known poems and, moreover, as the conclusion of a book of poems, poems are offered to the reader, not included in the main collection, other editions and options. Ignored for a long time, and subsequently persecuted at home not only by the official authorities, but also by the illiterate masses, he was awarded the highest literary award - the Nobel Prize (1958).

Pobeg na ryvok [Burst Escape]

Today, when life-long half-barrels were left behind, early posthumous praises made a noise and the period of cultural canonization of Vladimir Vysotsky as a popular bard and an equally popular beloved actor began, the uniqueness of his talent, which always existed separately and did not dissolve in a variable language common formulas. Paradoxically, this fidelity to himself was combined in Vysotsky?s personality and work with an extraordinary receptivity to other artistic voices, to the figurative system of high poetry and prosaism of everyday speech, with openness to all kinds of styles and genres, themes and moods, poetic sizes and lyrical roles. A keen sense of vital and poetic truth, an absolute hearing rejecting any false intonation, an incredible variety of roles not played on the stage and in the movie, but lived in songs and poems, all this polyphony of meanings and images contained the pages of this book .
