Brodsky Through the Eyes of His Contemporaries combines
biographical details about Joseph Brodsky with a collection of
interviews that illuminate an intriguing contemporary phenomenon,
along with a new and authoritative interpretation of the poetics,
style, and ideas of one of the most influential poets to emerge in
post-Stalinist Russia. Subtle, incisive, and rigorous in its
critical evaluation, each discussion significantly advances our
understanding of Brodsky's complex poetic world. All discussions
are linked by core questions that are carefully and sometimes
provocatively formulated. This book is a superb guide to further
study of Brodsky's work both for specialist scholars and general
readers who are intoxicated by poetry. Presented in two volumes,
this is the second edition of a work first published in 1992; this
edition is enlarged with new interviews and a series of previously
unpublished unique photographs from the personal archives of the
author and the interviewees. Volume I offers a fascinating record
of conversations with poets of various nationalities about Brodsky:
Czeslaw Milosz, Roy Fisher, Lev Loseff, Bella Akhmadulina, Natalia
Gorbanevskaya, Tomas Venclova, Viktor Krivulin, Alexander Kushner,
and Elena Shvarts. Volume II features eye-witness accounts of
Joseph Brodsky's friends and family members, publishers, editors,
translators, students, and fellow poets including John Le Carre,
Oleg Tselkov, Petr Vail, Bengt Jangfeldt, Susan Sontag, Seamus
Heaney, Derek Walcott, and others.
