Russian poet/Soviet Jew : the legacy of Eduard Bagritskii
"In Russian Poet/Soviet Jew: The Legacy of Eduard Bagritskii, Maxim D. Shrayer explores the problem of Jewish identity in the early Soviet period by examining the short but brilliant career of Eduard Bagritskii (1895-1934), a major Russian-Jewish poet. Overlooked in the West, Bagritskii's life and art typify the tortured destiny of Russia's Jews. Shrayer paints a portrait of his subject, providing photographs of Bagritskii's life and the first English translations of his major works."
