Amid the din of Russia’s patriotic sentiments and Instagram
instants, is there any room left for the voice of a poet? Despite
the many entertainments and distractions of modern life, Anzhelina
Polonskaya’s spare but cutting poems in Take Me to Stavanger
declare a wholehearted “Yes.” This bilingual Russian-English
volume makes a refuge for the poet and her readers, plumbing the
depths of contemporary melancholy and ennui. Beautifully crafted
idiosyncratic dissections of a strong individual who refuses to go
along with the currents of popular culture or political jingoism
invite readers to slow down and pay attention.
