This collection of essays displays the full range of the author's interests - poetic, literary, political and historical. Essays on writers deal with Akhmatova, Tsvetneva and Mandelshtam, as well as Western poets like Auden, Montale, Cavafy and Derek Walcott. In catalogues in the art Brodsky addresses the history and future of Russians prose, and offers meditations on history and the modern age.
The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
