  • Kamchatkan Bear with No Ice Floe
    Christopher Whyte / Marina Tsvetaeva
    In the first ten years of her Paris exile Marina Tsvetaeva produced far less poetry than when living in the Czech Lands, or in the tumultuous Moscow years between 1917 and 1922. The poetry was also different in kind. It came in cycles, prompted by the deaths of Vladimir Mayakovsky and Max Voloshin, or by passionate involvements with younger poets of the emigration. Rejecting to...

  • Roland’s Horn
    Christopher Whyte / Marina Tsvetaeva
    When Milestones 2 appeared in 1921, it broke a silence that had lasted eight years, in which no books by Tsvetaeva appeared, and brought Boris Pasternak the revelation of her genius. He wrote to her that he had had to break off reading aloud three different poems because interrupted by his own sobbing. The tone of its two sections is carefully crafted, profane then sacred, carn...

  • The Scale By Which You Measure Me
    Christopher Whyte / Marina Tsvetaeva
    From 1912 to 1920 Marina Tsvetaeva wrote copiously but published no books. Later she would claim that at least three major collections had fallen by the wayside in those years. The poems translated here offer readers the flavour of those vanished books, covering the period roughly from her daughter Alya’s first birthday to the Tsar’s abdication in March 1917 and the summer whic...

  • Head on a Gleaming Plate
    Marina Tsvetaeva / Christopher Whyte
    The poems in this volume were composed between August 1917 and October 1918 and thus they span the most turbulent period of the 20th century in Russia, as the nascent republic was overthrown by the Bolsheviks and the country descended into civil war. This collection concentrates on the lyric poems that Tsvetaeva wrote at this time, whose importance should not be underestimated....

    Marina Tsvetaeva / Christopher Whyte

  • After Russia
    Marina Tsvetaeva / Christopher Whyte
    After Russia (1928) is considered to mark the high point in Marina Tsvetaeva’s output of shorter, lyrical poems. Tsvetaeva told Boris Pasternak that all that mattered in the book was its anguish. Breathtaking technical mastery and experimentation are underpinned by suicidal thoughts, a sense of exclusion from the circle of human love and companionship, and an increasing alienat...

It is a lyrical diary for 1916, the final year of Tsarist Russia, before the twin revolutions of February and October 1917.
