Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938) is widely regarded as one of the
twentieth century's most influential poets. This collection,
compiled, translated, and edited by poet and scholar Ian Probstein,
provides Anglophone audiences with a powerful selection of
Mandelstam's most beloved and haunting poems. Both scholars and
general readers will gain a deeper understanding of his poetics, as
Probstein situates each poem in its historical and literary
context. The English translations presented here are so deeply
immersed in the Russian sources and language through the ear of a
Russian-born Probstein who has spent most of his adult life in the
US, that they provide reader's with a Mandelstam unseen any
translations that precede it.
