Description
Yevtushenko's poetry leaps continents and covers war and peace, intolerance and human striving. {This is} a passionate and essential edition of his collected poems. --Herbert Mitgant, The New York Times. {Yevtushenko's} work represents something most lost in poetry this side of the Atlantic: a public voice made possible by the poet's close ties to the rhythms and vocabulary of public speech ... A vast hoe remains on any shelf that does not hold this volume. --Booklist.
