Osip Mandelstam was perhaps the most important Russian poet of the nineteen-hundreds€"a  crucial instigator of the €œrevolution of the word€ that took place in early twentieth-century St. Petersburg and a political non-conformist who earned the enmity of Stalin and his totalitarian regime. With Stolen Air, Christian Wiman, editor of POETRY, America€s oldest and most prestigious magazine of verse, offers a new selection and translation of Mandelstam€s poetry€"from his hard-edged and highly formal early poems to his almost savagely musical later works€"for a new generation to be moved by, marvel at, and appreciate.
