Revue de presse
We needn't worry again about how to read Akhmatova in translation... the translations are remarkable. Reading this enormous, impeccable book, we watch her work achieve the supreme goal of lyric poetry: to transfigure loss without belittling it, commemorate love without cooling it, and embody the truth of disparate lives in a single self. (Andrew Motion The Observer)
Hemschemeyer's versions are the best I have ever seen. This great lilac brick of a book is a stupendous bargain. (Michael Hoffman The Times)
This edition is an enormous achievement . . . usefully annotated and well illustrated. The text is the definitive English-language edition of Akhmatova . . . a ground-breaking work. (Elizabeth Burns The Scotsman)
A fitting tribute to one of the greatest poets of the century... this is a volume to be treasured. (The Good Book Guide)
This is one of the most important publications of the year, if not the decade. (Adam Thorpe Literary Review) --Adam Thorpe - Literary Review

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition; First Printing. First Edition USA (1990 unstated. Very Near Fine in Very Near Fine DJs: Volume One shows a small patch of very faint smudging to the bottom edge of the text block; else flawless; Volume Two shows a short, very faint stray pencil mark at the lower fore-edge and a faint smudge near it; several tiny dots of soil at the lower outside edge of the front panel; the lower front corner tip is every so lightly nudged; the binding of Volume Two is ever-so-slightly cocked off square but remains perfectly secure; the texts are clean. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the texts. Free of any underlining, hi-lighting or marginalia or marks in the texts. Free of ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, or labels. A handsome, very nearly-new set, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing the noted flaws only. Bright and clean. Corners sharp. Very close to 'As New'. The DJs show the mildest rubbing; very faint creases at the lower corners of the inside flaps of Volume Two; else flawless; unclipped. Attractive and intact. Very close to "As New". NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. Large 8vo (9.3 x 6.3 x 4.25 inches) xxxviii, 650 & xl, 871 pages. Translated by Judith Hemschemeyer. Edited and with an Introduction by Roberta Reeder. Essays by Akhmatova's disciple, the Soviet poet Anatoly Naiman, and distinguished expatriate writer Sir Isaiah Berlin's account of his two meetings with her (Leningrad, 1945, and Oxford, 1965). Illustrated with duotone photographs. Language: English. Weight: 88.9 ounces. Maroon buckram over boards with gilt titles at the front panels and backstrips. Hardbacks with DJs. These two fat volumes, a 100th-anniversary tribute to the great Russian poet Akhmatova (1889-1966) , are clearly a labor of love. Editor Reeder's book-length introduction is a meticulous, well-documented account of the poet's life and poetry through the ebullience of modernist Petersburg, the grim deprivation of two world wars and the 1917 revolutions, the poverty and repression (including the repeated imprisonment of her son) of the interwar years and the vicious official attacks after World War II, and the last years of international honors. This life has made Akhmatova emblematic both of the unbowed intelligentsia and of the unsung heroism of millions of Russian women. The second volume begins with two impressionistic essays by Akhmatova's disciple, the Soviet poet Anatoly Naiman, and distinguished expatriate writer Sir Isaiah Berlin's account of his two meetings with her (Leningrad, 1945, and Oxford, 1965). The edition is lavishly illustrated with the known iconography of Akhmatova herself, her contemporaries, and the Petersburg-Leningrad settings that were her spiritual home. These rich secondary materials make a worthy frame for Akhmatova's glorious poetry, pre sented side by side in Russian and English and arranged, in exemplary fashion, with respect for choices the poet made in lifetime editions. American poet Hemschemeyer devoted well over ten years to the translations, learning Russian for that purpose; her equally exemplary translator's preface explains her working methods and the inevitable compromises involved in the valiant ef fort to create English equivalents for Akhmatova's spare and musical verse. This book will be a treasure for poetry lovers everywhere. ; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall. N° de réf. du vendeur 58735
