“I always think about the past, it's so large and bright.”
Anna Akhmatova, My Half-Century: Selected Prose
“None of the places where I grew up and live in my youth exist any longer: Tsarskoe Selo, Sevastopol, Kiev, Slepnyovo, Gungerburg (Ust-Narova).
The following have survived: Khersones (because it is eternal), Paris - by somebody's oversight, and Petersburg-Leningrad, so that there would be a place to lay my head.”
Anna Akhmatova, My Half-Century: Selected Prose
