Necropolis

Necropolis is an unconventional literary memoir from Vladislav Khodasevich, hailed by Vladimir Nabokov as “the greatest Russian poet of our time.” In each of the book’s nine chapters, Khodasevich memorializes a significant figure of Russia’s literary Silver Age, and in the process writes an insightful obituary of the era.

Necropole este un memoriu literar neconventional al lui Vladislav Hodasevici, salutat de Vladimir Nabokov drept ,,cel mai mare poet rus al timpului nostru". In fiecare dintre cele noua capitole ale cartii, Khodasevich comemoreaza o figura semnificativa a Epocii de argint literare a Rusiei si, in acest proces, scrie un necrolog perspicace al epocii.
