| Publisher Description: These poems reflecting on my experiences with Russia are a sequel to "Tolstoy's Lament", published in English and Russian in St. Petersburg in 1994. The poems for "Lament" are based on five trips to Russia beginning in 1983 at the height of the cold war and the nuclear threat, and continuing through the advent of glasnost, perestroika, and the 1991 coup. Some had not been translated into Russian, and others were written after that volume was published. And still others have little to do with Russia, but many Russians may find them worthwhile. |
