“Akhmatova, Tsvetaeva and Akhmadulina are distinct poets and very different, but there are many inner similarities between them,” Zlobina said. “They were just Russian poetesses and infinitely loved Russia. The creative work and fate of Akhmatova and Tsvetaeva reflected the complex path of the intelligentsia, which was supposed to be in revolutionary storms and global changes.”
