This is the first book-length study of the outstanding generation
of Leningrad poets whose careers began during the Khrushchev Thaw.
The text brings together memoirs, interviews, and archival research
to construct an account of the world of poetry in Leningrad, in
which many now-famous figures began writing. The author describes
the institutions, official events, unofficial groups, and informal
activities that were attended by many young poets, including the
pre-eminent poet of this generation, Iosif Brodsky. Alongside a
detailed study of Brodsky's work from the early 1970s are close
readings of two other major poets from this generation whose work
has often been overlooked, Viktor Sosnora and Dmitry Bobyshev.
