Dear Elina,
 
There is a story by Teffi entitled "Solovki."  It is in her collection Vechernii den' (Prague: Plamia, 1924), pp. 7-23.  
 
Best wishes,
Edie Haber

Subject: [SEELANGS] Solovetsk/Solovki in Russian poetry ?



Dear colleagues,
Would anyone remember references to Solovetsk monastery/Solovki islands
in Russian poetry, fiction or cultural mythology?
I just visited the islands and am extraordinarily excited about its
beauty, its significance in the Russian cultural history,
as a naval fortress, place of pilgrimage and tourism, asceticism,
concentration camp, resurgence?
Grateful for all comments!
