About the book: year / Since the author of the poems went out to demonstrate against the invasion of Soviet troops in Czechoslovakia, opposing his conscience to the titanic bulk of the totalitarian system, affirming the values larger than her own life, her poetry acquired a special status. Each line of the poet is provided with a “golden reserve” of a unique destiny. In her new book, which brings together the best of what was written between 1956 and 2010, Natalya Gorbanevskaya, winner of the “Russian Prize” in 2010, demonstrates brilliant examples of Russian spiritual lyrics, focused on two currents of time - earthly, everyday, and the big one is heavenly, moving according to the eternal laws of truth and love and passing into Eternity.
