"Nadezhda Mandelstam's memoir of life with her husband, the poet Osip Mandelstam, is a vital eyewitness account of Stalin's Soviet Union and one of the most moving testaments to the value of literature and imaginative freedom ever written.

"Nadezhda Mandelstam's memoir of life with her husband, the poet Osip Mandelstam, is a vital eyewitness account of Stalin's Soviet Union and one of the most moving testaments to the value of literature and imaginative freedom ever written. In 1933, Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938) wrote a satiric poem about Joseph Stalin, and the result of his defiance was arrest, interrogation, and exile, followed by re-arrest and death in a transit camp of the Siberian gulag in 1938. Osip's wife, Nadezhda (1899-1980), loyally accompanied him into exile in the Urals and later worked courageously to rescue the manuscripts of his poems and to discover the truth about his death. Hope Against Hope is her harrowing account of their last years together and a window into Stalin's persecution of Russia's literary intelligentsia in the 1930s and beyond. But it is also a profoundly inspiring love story that relates their determination to keep both love and art alive in the most desperate circumstances."--
