This book presents over 120 of Marina Tsvetaeva's finest poems, with detailed commentary on each piece. The poems are illustrated with masterpieces of Russian and foreign painting, as well as rare photographs of Tsvetaeva and her circle.

"There is no poet greater than Tsvetaeva in our century," asserted Joseph Brodsky, who considered her "the most sincere poet in our poetry." Tsvetaeva's deep and passionate nature, with its fearless sincerity and uncompromising spirit, perhaps predetermined her fateful life.

In this book, you will read stories about the creation of Tsvetaeva's poems and the events surrounding them, meet the recipients of her poetry, and learn about her love affairs. Through the testimonies of her contemporaries and Marina Tsvetaeva's own writings, you will discover new details of her biography, her tragic fate, and her "soul that knows no measure."
