Portraits Without Frames

de Lev Ozerov, Boris, Robert Chandler, Maria Bloshteyn, Irina Mashinski

"Lev Ozerov's Portraits without frames offers fifty shrewd and moving glimpses into the lives of Soviet writers, composers, and artists caught between the demands of art and politics. ... Composed in free verse of deceptively artless simplicity, Ozerov's portraits are like nothing else in Russian poetry."--Back cover.
