Autorenporträt
Alexander Pushkin was a novelist, dramatist and poet, penning such influential works as "Eugene Onegin" and "Boris Godunov." He is now considered the father of modern Russian literature. Anna Akhmatova was a modernist poet and is recognized as one of the greatest 20th-century Russian poets. She was at times censored or even condemned by the Stalinist government. Andrei Voznesenski was considered one of the most daring writers of the Soviet era, but his style often led to criticism from his contemporaries and even a threat of expulsion. Before his death, he was both critically and popularly proclaimed a living classic and an icon of Soviet intellectuals. Vladimir Azarov is an architect and poet whose books include "Dinner with Catherine the Great," "The Kiss from Mary Pickford," "Imitation," "Of Life & Other Small Sacrifices," and "Voices in Dialogue." Barry Callaghan is an author, poet, and anthologist. He is the editor in chief of both Exile Editions and "Exile: the Literary Quarterly" and he is the author of numerous books that include "Beside Still Waters "and "Between Trains."
