Beschreibung:
Boris Leonidovich Pasternak, Russian poet and writer, was the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1958. Born in Moscow, Pasternak is best known in the West for his monumental tragic novel on Soviet Russia, Doctor Zhivago. It is as a poet, however, that he is most celebrated in Russia. He fell out of favor with the Soviet authorities in the 1930s but somehow was spared arrest and imprisonment. He died on May 31, 1960.
Best known in the West for his epic novel Doctor Zhivago, Boris Pasternak is most celebrated in Russia as a poet--perhaps the most influential Russian poet of the twentieth century. But this is only one of the many little-known facts of Pasternak's life that come to light in this extensive selection of his correspondence with his family from 1921 to 1960.
