Boris Slutskii (1919-1986) has emerged as one of Russia`s great twentieth-century poets. His best poetry and prose were published only after his death. In this book the innermost thoughts of this clear-eyed tragedian are revealed as he enthused during the dynamism and terror of the 1930s, fought heroically in Russia and in Europe during WWII, and then became an increasingly skeptical witness to deStalinization and re-Stalinization. The book is collection of his memoirs and poems. Gerald Smith (University of Oxford) supplies a detailed commentary to this first translation of this work in English. Index. Also available by B. Slutskii (in Russian): O Drugikh i o Sebe (2005); Bez Popravok (2006)
