The Black Man

Sergei Yesenin is one of the key poets of his era, whose lines have long become an integral part of domestic culture. His poetry is piercing, moving, sometimes outrageous, and even during his lifetime, it gained a cult status, and today it resonates just as sharply and sincerely. A special place in this publication is occupied by the poem "The Black Man"—Yesenin's last work, in which the despair, horror of incomprehensible reality, and the dramatic awareness of the futility of human searches for meaning are embodied with striking force.
