His life, too, is the stuff of legend, from his survival of the siege of Leningrad in early childhood to his expulsion from the Soviet Union and his achievements as a Nobel Prize winner and America's poet laureate. In this penetrating biography, Brodsky's life and work are illuminated by his great friend, the late poet and literary scholar Lev Loseff. Drawing on a wide range of source materials, some previously unpublished, and extensive interviews with writers and critics, Loseff carefully reconstructs Brodsky's personal history while offering deft and sensitive commentary on the philosophical, religious, and mythological sources that influenced the poet's work. Published to great acclaim in Russia and now available in English for the first time, this is literary biography of the first order, and sets the groundwork for any books on Brodsky that might follow. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 500 Translated from the Russian. 546 Translated from the Russian. 520 Traces the life and literary career of Joseph Brodsky, describing the twentieth-century Russian poet's childhood, his expulsion from the Soviet Union, being awarded the Nobel Prize, and becoming America's poet laureate. 600 10 Brodsky, Joseph, |d1940-1996. |=^A635990 650 0 Authors, Russian |y20th century |vBiography. |=^A490990 700 1 Miller, Jane Ann. |=^A1040759 880 10 |6240-00/(NИосиф Бродский. |lАнглийский 880 |6500-00/(NTranslation of: Иосиф Бродский. 949 PG3479.4.R64 Z76513 2011 |hJOYNER48 |ojmpl |i30372015550996 938 Baker and Taylor |bBTCP |nBK0008892621 938 Erasmus Boekhandel |bERAA |nNTS0000110915 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n3417137 938 Coutts Information Services |bCOUT |n12769326 994 C0 |bERE 596 1 998 2482668
