Then something like a smile passed fleetingly over what had once been her face.Īkhmatova referred to this passage as Vmesto predisoviia (Instead of a Preface), adding it as prologue to her great poem, “Requiem,” written during the years of her son Lev Gumilev’s imprisonment. Now she started out of the torpor common to us all and asked me in a whisper (everyone whispered there): Standing behind me was a woman, with lips blue from the cold, who had, of course, never heard me called by name before.

In the terrible years of the Yezhov terror I spent seventeen months waiting in line outside the prison in Leningrad. Kneeling on the floor between the shelves, I read a passage no doubt well known to readers of Poetry: Now he was advising me to read Akhmatova, and so that winter I went into the stacks of the Library of Congress and found a volume of her poems, translated by Stanley Kunitz and Max Hayward.
