Svarovsky) The author of the book of poems "Believe in Botanika" (2005) Short List Prize Andrei Bely (2004) Leonid Shvab stands apart in modern poetry, without adjusting to any schools and directions. His lonely effort gives his voice the endless abandoned spaces, sleepless scattering landscapes, where the salt marshes sparkle and the checkpoints remaining from the broken army.
