One of the greatest and grandest advocates of the literary vocation, Joseph Brodsky truly lived his life as a poet, and for it earned eighteen months in an Arctic labor camp, expulsion from his native country, and the Nobel Prize in Literature. Such were one man's wages. Here, collected for the first time, are all the poems he published in English, from his earliest collaborations with Derek Walcott, Richard Wilbur, Howard Moss, and Anthony Hecht to the moving farewell poems he wrote near the end of his life. With nearly two hundred poems, several of them never before published in book form, this will be the essential volume of Brodsky's work.

Less Than One: Selected Essays
Автор: Joseph Brodsky Жанр: Macmillan Publishers USA Год: 1987 Страниц: 516 Дата загрузки: 15 апреля 20091992-08-17

«This collection of essays thrusts Brodsky — heretofore known more for his poetry and translations — into the forefront of the «Third Wave» of Russian emigre writers. His insights into the works of Dostoyevsky, Mandelstam, Platonov, as well as non-Russian poets Auden, Cavafy and Montale are brilliant. While the Western popularity of many other Third Wavers has been stunted by their inability to write in English, Brodsky consumed the language to attain a «closer proximity» to poets such as Auden. The book, which won a National Book Critics Circle Award, opens and closes with revealing autobiographical essay.»

Watermark

«In this brief, intense, gem-like book, equal parts extended autobiographical essay and prose poem, Brodsky turns his eye to the seductive and enigmatic city of Venice. A mosaic of 48 short chapters — each recalling a specific episode from one of his many visits there (Brodsky spent his winters in Venice for nearly 20 years) — «Watermark» associatively and brilliantly evokes one city's architectural and atmospheric character. In doing so, the book also reveals a subject — and an author — readers have never before seen.»
