Mikhail Svetlov: Selected Poems / Михаил Светлов. Избранные стихотворения

📕 "The height of my dreams is that one day a reader lighting upon my book of poems will come to understand not only me but also the times in which I lived." This remark by the poet could form a fitting epigraph to his verse. His poetry throbs with the times. Both the poet and the people we meet in his poems are actively and passionately involved in historical events.
