The Enigma of Isaac Babel(1st Edition)
Biography, History, Context
by Gregory Freidin
Hardcover, 288 Pages, Published 2009 by Stanford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-8047-5903-8, ISBN: 0-8047-5903-0

"A literary cult figure on a par with Franz Kafka, Isaac Babel has remained an enigma ever since he disappeared, along with his archive, inside Stalin's secret police headquarters in May of 1939.

A Coat of Many Colors(First Edition)
Osip Mandelstam and His Mythologies of Self-Presentation
by Gregory Freidin
Paperback, 450 Pages, Published 2010 by University Of California Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-520-26916-3, ISBN: 0-520-26916-0

[electronic resource]: Osip Mandelstam and his mythologies of self-presentation

Hardcover, 450 Pages, Published 1992 by University Of California Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-520-05438-7, ISBN: 0-520-05438-5

"Remember the Greek house: the wife so loved by them all — No, not Helen, the other — oh how long she embroidered. ... (or "embroidery," in Mandelstam's pointedly Russified version) — the poem may legitimately be read as Mandelstam's reply ... 0 But it is equally tempting to read it as a counterpart, indeed as a Hellenic precedent, that legitimized the return of Mandelstam's Leah to her father's bosom."
