Dear all,
I have been puzzling for some time about this poem.
The English edition of the huge C20 Russian poetry anthology compiled by Yevtushenko includes "The Ballad about the German Censor" - a brilliant, witty poem that I like more than anything else I have read by Samoilov.
But this poem is not in the Russian edition of the anthology. Nor is it in any Russian edition of Samoilov's work that I have seen. Can anyone explain this to me? Or tell me who I could ask?
I wrote some time ago to Yevtushenko himself but have not received an answer.
All the best,
Robert
