Poetry
… we bring you an excerpt from Russian Symbolist poet Aleksandr Blok’s 1918 poem The Twelve. “Today I am a genius,” he wrote after completing the twelve-canto chronicle of the October Revolution. The opening lines are amongst the most famous in Russian literature.
Black night.
White snow.
The wind, the wind!
It will not let you go.
The wind, the wind!

The white snow.
Brother ice peeps from below
Stumbling and tumbling
Folk slip and fall.
