Opis

The career of Ol'ga Berggol'ts offers a case study in the complexities that faced Soviet writers in the Stalin era, and demonstrates that the borders between "official" and "unofficial" literature were permeable and shifting. This study draws on unpublished materials, including the poet's notebooks and diaries, to show how conflict and ambiguity functioned as a structuring principle in her work.

Recenzje

Hodgson's exploration of the life and work of Ol'ga Berggol'ts is a very interesting and welcome addition to the study of Soviet literature.
