Petersburg Winters and Disintegration of the Atom: Selected Memoirs and Prose Fiction
Efraim Sicher, Georgy Ivanov, Jerome Katsell
This book presents translations of two celebrated works by Georgy Ivanov. Petersburg Winters (1928) is a portrait of Petersburg swept up in the artistic ferment of late Imperial and Revolutionary Russia. The spirit of the city is conveyed through a series of vignettes of Ivanov's contemporaries, including Blok, Akhmatova, Esenin, and Mandelstam. Disintegration of the Atom (1938) is a prose poem depicting Russian emigre despair on the eve of WWII-a cri de coeur that challenges prevailing concepts of time and space, ending in erotically charged wretchedness.
