The Noise of Time

"To exist is the highest self-love of the artist. He does not want another paradise but being" – wrote Osip Mandelstam. The great poet, who changed the very structure of the Russian language, was like no one else able to... feel the air of a cruel era, that "age of the wolf" which led the poet to his death in the transit camp of Dalstroi in Vladivostok. But before the Stalinist repression was the Silver Age and Petersburg, World War I and revolution: "the noise of time" that took your breath away... The mastery of Osip Mandelstam is the art of a master organically connected with the word, a stern and strict craftsman.
The book includes selected poems of Osip Mandelstam, prose, and articles of the master who urged to "prove your truth in such a way that the whole chain of causes and effects from alpha to omega trembles in response".
