Georgy Ivanov is the fictional narrator of this tragic and artistically glorious period 1910-1925. Ivanov’s memoir is controversial, part of the so-called \"Petersburg text\", of Russian literature. The spirit of the city is conveyed through a series of vignettes of contemporary writers such as Blok, Akhmatova,  and  Mandelstam. Disintegration of the Atom (1937) is a prose poem depicting Russian  despair in Paris on the eve of WWII.  A cri de coeur that challenges our concepts of time and space and leads to erotically charged wretchedness. This exciting collection is suitable for courses on early twentieth century literary memoir and cultural history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments\u003cp\u003e On Transliteration, Sources, and Annotation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Introduction: “. . .
