The poetry of Boris Pasternak (1890-1960) was written during the period of greatest upheaval in Russia. Yet despite political persecution Pasternak continued to show the vital fidelity of the poet to his work. This varied selection includes the early lyrics, the post-Revolution epics and the sad tranquility of the later poems - which have a continuity of themes and values and encapsulate Pasternak's vivid sensual response to the world surrounding him.
