Book Synopsis
"Flags" was the only volume of poetry published by the Russian emigre poet Boris Poplavsky (1903-1935) during his own lifetime. A significant Surrealist volume, it is one of the 'lost' creations of a man who has been called the greatest of the Russian emigre poets. Now recovered by Russian literary experts and re-edited for a new public, Poplavsky is gaining the readership that eluded him in his lifetime. Unusually, this book presents the complete contents of the original volume ("Paris", 1933), rather than presenting a Selected or some other overview, and thus opens a window onto a fascinating and unfairly neglected figure.
