Paskternak's poems, writes Rudman in his introduction, evoke "the constant movement and change that occurs from moment to moment and in hitherto unseen connection between disparate things." His unencumbered and startling perceptions of the world are dense, rich, and surreal: In the orphaned, sleepless, Damp universal waster Groans tore from their posts, The whirlwind dug in, abated. A SULTRY NIGHT Osip Mandelstam wrote, "To read the poems of Pasternak is to get one's throat clear, to fortify one's, breathing....I see Pasternak's My SisterūLife as a collection of magnificent exercises in breathing...a cure for tuberculosis." This English version, which includes "The Highest Sickness," is a heady gust that matches the intensity and power of the Russian.
