Description
In That Light Blue Room
Anna Akhmatova
The book contains thirty-nine poems written by Anna Akhmatova at different periods of her creative path. The unfinished notes of “Prose Lines on a Poem,” which are a diary of the mystery of poetry, are followed by portraits of Amadeo Modigliani, Pushkin, Lermontov, and Dante, with vibrant and precise brushstrokes. In the margins of this meditation on art and the fate of the artist, with a unique mirror magic, the poet’s own gaze and inner biography are also completed. The diary entries dedicated to Osip Mandelstam, which are one of the latter’s best portraits, are a meditation on the tragic turning points of the century and the Poet’s conscience.
