The city that emerges embodies loss and dislocation, continuity and miraculous survival. This \"scholarly and imaginative study\" (\u003ci\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e) convincingly demonstrates that a good part of Akhmatovas verse could never have been written but for the Petersburg environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sharon Leiter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 081227864X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780812278644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pennsylvania Press Anniversary\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/29\/1983\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Sharon Leiter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48013794771199,"sku":"9780812278644","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_41b035c4-7686-430e-95f1-8b48c6713db6.jpg?v=1767744814","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/akhmatovas-petersburg-sharon-leiter-9780812278644","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
