Pina Napolitano

Marina Cvetaeva's Notebooks are not only an exceptional literary document, but also an irreplaceable historical, political and social one. They offer a perspective on the events following the Russian Revolution and the civil war from the point of view of a woman poet, who left Russia for Europe and never truly belonged to any political faction, but always looked at political evolution and turmoil through the prism of čelovečeskoe, the "human".
