This book is a major critical biography of the poet Maria Tsvetaeva
by one of the foremost authorities on her work. It draws on a
profusion of recent documentation and research, some of it hitherto
unpublished, and encompasses the whole course of her life.
Professor Karlinsky is careful to supply the reader with the
necessary context for understanding the work by setting out the
historical, political and literary background against which
Tsvetaeva's life and literary development evolved. A particular
feature of the book is a discussion of Tsvetaeva's relationships
with her literary contemporaries, especially Mandelstam, Rilke,
Akhmatova, Pasternak, and Mayakovsky, and of her emotional
involvement with various men and women that are reflected in her
poetry, plays and prose. Interest in Tsvetaeva's work has grown
considerably and this important book will be essential reading both
to scholars of twentieth-century Russian literature and cultural
studies and to all serious students of modern literature.
