An intimate, penetrating study of Joseph
Brodsky
's
life and work, written by his
lifelong friend, the eminent Russian
literary scholar Lev Loseff
The work of Joseph
Brodsky (1940-1996),
one of Russia's great modern poets, has
been the subject of much study and debate.
His life, too, is the stuff of legend, from his
survival of the siege of Leningrad in early
childhood to his expulsion from the Soviet
Union and his achievements as a Nobel
Prize winner and America's poet laureate.
In this penetrating biography, Brodsky's life
and work are illuminated by his great friend,
the late poet and literary scholar Lev Loseff.
Drawing on a wide range of source materials,
some previously unpublished, and extensive
interviews with writers and critics, Loseff
carefully reconstructs Brodsky's personal
history while offering deft and sensitive
commentary on the philosophical, religious,
and mythological sources that influenced
the poet's work. Published to great acclaim
in Russia and now available in English for
the first time, this is literary biography of
the first order, and it sets the groundwork
for any books on
Brodsky
that might follow. |
