Written in the Dark

Polina Barskova, Matvei Yankelevich and Irina Sandomirskaia present a pioneering bilingual anthology of “non-official” poetry from the Siege of Leningrad. These poems spend long decades in hiding: so shocking were they in form and content that their authors could not present them to contemporary readers. Finally, the time has come to present this striking work to both English and Russian audiences. This event is in English.
