<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"Readers will be deeply grateful to the</p><p>late Peter Oram for giving new life to the</p><p>work of a major Russian poet who has</p><p>never been fully recognized in the English-speaking</p><p>world - even if his haunting words</p><p>have been heard in Russian by the millions</p><p>who have seen his son's film <em>Mirror</em>.</p><p><br></p><p>Arseny Tarkovsky lived through the</p><p>Soviet period from beginning to end, </p><p>preserving his inner independence and</p><p>leaving a precious legacy of memorable</p><p>lyrics that achieve a dream-like potency</p><p>of suggestion. Oram's inventive and</p><p>beautifully shaped translations combine</p><p>in an exemplary way poetic freedom and</p><p>a careful attention to the form and the</p><p>sentiment of the originals."</p><p><br></p><p>Peter France</p><p>Professor Emeritus, </p><p>University of Edinburgh</p>
