Marina Tsvetaeva was a Russian poet whose early works displayed technical brilliance and intense emotional depth. Her poetry often incorporated folk song and Symbolist techniques, reflecting a profound engagement with Russian literary traditions. Living in exile profoundly shaped her output, leading to later explorations in prose that maintained her characteristic urgency and introspective power. Tsvetaeva is celebrated for her unique voice and visceral intensity, which resonate through her prolific and often tragic body of work.
L'ensemble présenté ici comporte "Le ciel brûle" (soit les poèmes de jeunesse datant des années 1910-1923) et "Tentative de jalousie", qui réunit tous les grands chants de la maturité (1924-1939). Ce large choix de textes, où se mêlent à l'infini tendresse et paroxysme, donne au lecteur l'image la plus juste possible du lyrisme expressionniste de Tsvetaeva
