Nadezhda Yakovlevna Mandelstam was born in Saratov in 1899, but spent her early life in Kiev, studying art and travelling widely in Western Europe. She learned English, French and German fluently enough to undertake extensive translation work, which supported her in the hard years ahead. She met the poet Osip Mandelstam in Kiev in 1919, and they married in 1922. From then until Osip's death, her life was so inextricably linked with her husband's that without her extraordinary courage and fortitude most of his work would have died with him. She spent the Second World War in Tashkent, teaching English and sharing a house with her close friend the poet Anna Akhmatova. After the war she led an inconspicuous existence as a teacher of English in remote provincial towns. In 1964 she was granted permission to return to Moscow, where she began to write her memoir of the life she had shared with one of the greatest Russian poets of the twentieth century, and where she continued to preserve his works and his memory in the face of official disapproval. Nadezhda means 'hope' in Russian, and she herself chose the English titles for her two-volume memoirs. She died in 1980.

评分西伯利亚情歌 那些云沉得那么低,像要睡在海的眼皮上 像是太平洋的一串迷梦,她梦见了黑海。 荒芜的岛屿像是沃罗涅日, 阳光摸索着我左肩的骨头像我弃妻的手。 他们突然交出了所有的珠宝,这些云沉得那么低, 他们突然从袖口掏出了上个世纪的雪橇。 他们请求我躺在上面, ...
评分诗人安娜·阿赫玛托娃认为,在二十世纪的俄国诗人所写的自传中,有两本最为出色:一本是帕斯捷尔纳克的《安全证书》,另外一本是曼德施塔姆的《时代的喧嚣》。阿赫玛托娃原本想自己也写一本自传,但是已有的两本自传如此优秀,竟然使其有些担心自己这部“未完成自传”,会显得...
