An insider’s account of the torments and tragedies of Leninism and Stalinism: the exceptional testimony of an entire generation of writers and artists, which matured luxuriantly in the 1920s and was crushed by Stalinist purges in the years that followed.<\/p>\n
Nade\u017eda<\/b>, in Russian, means hope, and never as in Nade\u017eda Mandel’\u0161tam<\/b>‘s Memoirs has hope, despite everything and against everything and everyone, been an imperative and a teaching. First released clandestinely from the USSR in the 1960s, and soon translated in the United States, the Memoirs of the Mandel’\u0161tam<\/b>, now published in Italy for the first time in unabridged edition (in two volumes: the second will be released in spring 2023), recount the drama of an intellectual generation in the aftermath of the Revolution: illusions first, fear later, lies as a mental habitus finally. They also recount the 1930s of Stalinism, when an entire generation of storytellers, critics, poets, from Josip Mandel’\u0161tam<\/b> to Anna<\/b> Achmatova<\/b>, two names for the whole, was reduced to silence, deportation, and death. Finally, they cast a glance at the upheaval that Stalin<\/b> ‘s death will cause in a country so enslaved by terror that it is incapable of understanding what that disappearance might mean. Sincerity of accents, tragic simplicity, dignity, humor make this Memoir a timeless masterpiece.<\/p>\n
