His letters are accomplished literary works in their own right, on a par with his poetry in their intensity, frankness, and dazzling stylistic play. In addition, they offer a rare glimpse into his innermost self, significantly complementing the insights gained from his work. They are especially poignant in that after 1923 Pasternak was never to see his parents again Notes Includes index English Print version record Subject Pasternak family -- Correspondence SUBJECT Pasternak family fast Subject Authors, Russian -- 20th century -- Correspondence LITERARY CRITICISM -- Russian & Former Soviet Union.
