As I Said by Lev Loseff, Translated by G. S. Smith - March 2012, Arc Publications

As I Said by Lev Loseff
Translated by G. S. Smith, introduced by Barry P. Scherr
These poems are written from across the poet's life, contemplating his native land of Russia from both a literal and a figurative distance, while at the same time casting a sometimes jaundiced eye on the alien culture of America in which he spent the final years of his life. Loseff's poetry excels in complex imagery, rich literary allusion, and is abundant in formal experiment.
