Youth.

Vladimir Nabokov wrote about Khodasevich: "The greatest poet of our time, a literary descendant of Pushkin through the Tyutchev line, he will remain the pride of Russian poetry as long as the last memory of it lives on." The poet went through an atypical path in his work from symbolism to neoclassicism. Despite the serious, complex themes of philosophical poetry, and some coldness in the lyricism, the author was not devoid of a brilliant sense of humor. The collection includes all five published collections of the poet: "Youth," "Happy Little House," "By the Way of Grain," "Heavy Lyre," "European Night."
