More about the book
Exploring the profound impact of Russia on British literature throughout the 20th century, this book delves into the works of influential writers like Joseph Conrad and Virginia Woolf. It highlights how Russia served as both inspiration and cautionary tale regarding totalitarianism. Central to the narrative are two romantic encounters: Walter Benjamin with Asja Lacis in 1926 and Isaiah Berlin with Anna Akhmatova in 1945. This framework reveals how these relationships illuminate the interplay between Russian culture and British modernism.
