A collection of extraordinary essays by one of the seminal Russian poets of the twentieth centuryGennady Aygis longtime translator and friend Peter France has compiled this moving collection of tributes dedicated to some of the writers and artists who sustained him while living in the Moscow underground. Written in a quiet intensely expressive poetic style, Aygis inventive essays blend autobiography with literary criticism, social commentary, nature writing, and enlightening homage. He addresses such literary masters as Pasternak, Kafka, Mayakovsky, Celan, and Tomas Transtrmer, along with other writers from the Russian avantgarde and his native Chuvashia. Related poems by Aygi are also threaded between the essays. Reminiscent of Mandelstams elliptical travel musings and Kafkas intensely spiritual jottings in his notebooks, Time of Gratitude glows with the love and humanity of a sacred vocation. These leaves of paper," Aygi says, 'are swept up by the whirlwind of festivity; everything whirlsfrom Earth to Heavenand perhaps the Universe too begins to swirl. Everything flows together in the rainbow colors and lights of the infinite world of Poetry.'
