Nikolai Zabolotsky (1903-1958) was one of the great poets of
twentieth-century Russia. As the last link in the Russian Futurist
tradition and the first significant poet to come of age in the
Soviet period, Zabolotsky wrote poetry both highly experimental and
classical. This book, first published in 1994, was the first
critical biography of Zabolotsky to appear in English. Goldstein
examines not only Zabolotsky's poetic career but also his life,
from his obscure origins in the Russian countryside to his arrest
and imprisonment in the 1930s. At the same time, Goldstein
highlights the deep ambiguity of Zabolotsky's era by exploring the
ways in which the poet was influenced both by the artistic
avant-garde and by the Soviet scientific establishment.
