Brodsky in Great Britain

[Alexandra Smith]

Dear colleagues,

Those of you who are interested in Brodsky might be curious to read  
Valentina Polukhina's fascinating article on the reception of Brodsky  
in Great Britain. It was published in the journal on poetry "Storony  
sveta": http://www.stosvet.net/9/polukhina/

All best,
Alexandra
