More about the book

Exploring themes of travel, memory, and perception, this work serves as a heartfelt tribute to St. Petersburg, intertwining the legacies of literary giants like Pushkin and Dostoyevsky. Originating from a journal in 2002, the poet reflects on his earlier visit to this vibrant city, rich with spectacle and nostalgia. The narrative is harmonized with Mussorgsky's suite, which mourns a lost friend, highlighting the complex relationship between language and experience. This collection captures the essence of love and loss in a city steeped in history.
