Article Criticizing the Poet Sergei Yesenin – A Booklet Banned in the Soviet Union – Moscow, 1926
Чей поэт Сергей Есенин? (Беглые заметки) [Whose Poet is Sergei Yesenin?], by Alexander Revyakin. Moscow: self-published, 1926. Russian.
An unflattering critical essay on the poet Sergei Yesenin and his work, by Alexander Ivanovich Revyakin (1900-1983), a Soviet literary critic and professor of literature. The essay was published roughly a month after Yesenin's death.
Because of its references to Leon Trotsky, this booklet was labeled subversive and consequently banned in the Soviet Union from the early 1930s onward. The authorities went so far as to remove and destroy all copies in local libraries.
The cover – whose designer is unidentified – features a portrait of Yesenin, encircled by a large question mark.
39 pp., 22.5 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains, tears, and creases to edges of cover and to spine. Back cover and last leaf detached. Minor tear to first leaf. Signature in pen to page facing title page.
Provenance: The Uzi Agassi Collection.
