Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva (1892-1941) was one of the first, if not the very first, to persistently and consistently refer to herself not as a poetess, but as a poet. In her view, poetesses, with rare exceptions, are mannered, as is the very word itself, femininely elusive and focused on trivialities, while she felt herself to be a native, a cluster of creative energy and courageous will - precisely a poet: authoritative, powerful, explosive, merciless to herself, deeply tragic. But over the years, at the peak of her poetic ascent, Tsvetaeva fully revealed herself as a memoirist, essayist, novelist, essayist, critic, and author of extensive diaries and numerous letters - in short, an incomparable prose writer. There are literary connoisseurs who even place her prose above her poetry. Paradoxically, in her poignant confessional verses, she primarily reveals to us - ourselves, and in her penetrating prose - first and foremost, she reveals herself completely. This book is addressed to a wide circle of interested readers.
