Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Osip Mandelstam (1891–1938) is one of the key figures of 20th-century Russian culture, with a unique and distinctive poetic voice. "In the craft of words, I value only wild meat, only mad growth," Mandelstam defined the peculiarity of his autobiographical prose, where he consciously breaks the classical narrative form, as the external events of individual destinies are pushed to the background. Mandelstam's prose, with its aphoristic, concise, and dense linguistic fabric, is primarily the "noise of time," not a chronicle, but an oratorio of the epoch.
