Аннотация:
Joseph Brodsky's last volume of poems in English, So Forth, represents eight years of masterful self-translation from the Russian, as well as a substantial body of work written directly in English. At the time of his death, in 1996, Brodsky was recognized as one of the great poets of his mother tongue; after twenty-four years in the United States, he had become a master of his adoptive language as well. The poems collected here reflect the many milieus ne inhabited — rural Massachusetts, New York City, his native St. Petersburg, the great cities of Europe — but they are in the voice or a citizen of the world, exploring the territories of language itself.
