TSVETAEVA, Anastasiia Tsvetayeva

A very nice bright copy of this first edition. Clean and tight. 10,000 printed. Used; Very Good Not published until 1991 although written during her time in the labour camps. "It seems unlikely that Anastasia Tsvetaeva’s eyeglasses should have ended up in Rockville. Daughter of the founder of what came to be known as the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts and sister of famed Russian poet Marina Tsvetaeva, Anastasia spent 22 years jailed by the Soviet government. Her novel, Amor, which she smuggled out of prison, wasn’t published until she was in her 90s." Demsey (2005)
