Zima Junction vividly describes his idyllic childhood in Siberia and his impressions of home after a long absence in Moscow. Private moments are captured in Waking, on the joys of discovering the unexpected in a lover, and Birthday, on a mothers concern for her son, while Encounter depicts an unexpected meeting with Hemingway in Copenhagen. The Companion and Party Card show war from a childs eye, whether playing while oblivious to German bombs falling nearby or discovering a fatally wounded soldier in the forest, while Yevtushenkos famous poem, Babiy Yar, is an angry exposé of the Nazi massacre of the Jews of Kiev.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51533766623520,"sku":"NEW0140424776","price":18.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61ZJ8LLRjDL.jpg?v=1777351866","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/selected-poems-penguin-classics-0140424776","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
