Description

Joseph Brodsky, one of the most significant poets of the 20th century, passed away on January 28, 1996. He earned the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1987 for what the committee called his “all-embracing authorship, imbued with clarity of thought and poetic intensity.” His importance stems from his unique ability to bridge Russian and American literary traditions, writing masterfully in both languages after being forced into exile from the Soviet Union in 1972. His poetry combined classical forms with modern sensibilities, while his essays demonstrated a profound understanding of culture, politics, and the human condition. On this tour, we’ll wander the streets he once knew so well, uncover the traces of his world, and step inside his former communal apartment—now a moving museum called A Room and a Half. Discover what remains of that vanished Soviet past and the city that shaped a poet.
