Phaedra with 'New Year's Letter' and other long poems, Paperback / softback Book

Phaedra with 'New Year's Letter' and other long poems Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Marina Tsvetaeva's verse drama Phaedra, completed in 1927, is the most extraordinary of all literary treatments of the Phaedra legend.

Angela Livingstone has translated this little-known great work for the first time into English.

Three long poems written at the same time as Phaedra connect, in their depth of thought and feeling, with Tsvetaeva's intense epistolary relationships with Pasternak and Rilke, and fascinatingly fill out the themes and preoccupations of the drama.
