In Russian poetry, Boris Pasternak's "My Sister-Life" is the equivalent of "The Waste Land", "Spring", and "Harmonium". Written in 1917, the cycle of poems in "My Sister-Life" concentrates on personal journeys, but is permeated by the tension and promise of the impending October revolution. |
| Synopsis: |
In Russian poetry, Boris Pasternak's "My Sister-Life" is the equivalent of "The Waste Land", "Spring", and "Harmonium". Written in 1917, the cycle of poems in "My Sister-Life" concentrates on personal journeys and loves, but is permeated by the tension and promise of the impending October revolution. Pasternak is an uncompromisingly complex poetic stylist, and his meticulous attention to structure, etymology, and phonetic qualities of words makes his poetry a formidable challenge for the translator. |
