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.
