| Title | A molodost' dlitsja... Putevoditel' po knige Iriny Odoevcevoj "Na beregah Nevy" |
| Description | Life Has Passed. But Youth Goes On... by Oleg Lekmanov is a detailed guide to Irina Odoevtseva’s famous memoir On the Banks of the Neva, a book devoted to literary Petersburg of the Silver Age, Nikolai Gumilev, poets, meetings, conversations and the atmosphere of an era already seen through émigré memory. The philologist Oleg Lekmanov reads Odoevtseva attentively and sceptically at the same time. He compares her accounts with documents, testimonies of contemporaries and historical context, showing where memoiristic accuracy gives way to literary play, errors of memory or conscious myth-making. The result is a dialogue between researcher and author, in which the familiar text opens onto the intricate work of memory and literature. |
