Anything else can only be a footnote... I find this book fascinating. It is well written, engrossing, vigorous. Needless to say, I am not a communist. I am also not a poet. Yevtushenko is a communist poet. I wouldn't count this a a reason not to read him. Quite the opposite. Of course, most poetry is unimaginative. Old ideas, written in verse. Yevtushenko gives this lovely quote from Maykovsky Probably, a dozen as yet unsued rhymes Survive, somewhere in Venezuela. Any why do people become poets, one wonders. Yevetushenko explains: 'A poet,' Barlas said again thoughtfully. 'Well, what have you got to say to the world?' 'He wants to tell the world that he's a poet - that's something for a start' Reading what Yevtushenko has to say about poetry in Soviet Russia, I thought to myself that a country that admires its poets is never beyond hope.

Babi Yar Yevgeny Yevtushenko Commentary on the Poem The Poem Commentary [Source: http://www2.one.net.au/~davco1/Essays/English/173.htm Babi Yar, a poem written by Yevgeny Yevtushenko, tells the story of the Nazi invasion into a small part of Russia, in which, throughout the duration of World War II, over one-hundred thousand Jews, Gypsies and Russian POW's were brutally murdered. However, what is unique about this particular perspective is that the narrator is not a Jew, but a mere observer who is aghast at the atrocities that took place during the Holocaust. It is through allusions, as well as other literary devices, that Yevtushenko elucidates caustically the absurdities of the hatred that caused the Holocaust, in addition to the narrator's identification with the Jews and their history of oppression. Perhaps, the most effective literary device used in "Babi Yar" is the allusion. The first clear allusion seen in the poem is the oneconcerning Egypt(line 6). This reference harks back to the Jews' enslavement in Egypt before they become a nation. In line 7, the narrator makes reference to how so many Jews perished on the cross. The reason for these initial allusions in the first section is clear. Yevtushenko is establishing the history of the Jewish people, being one of oppression, prejudice, and innocent victims. The next illusion in the poem is a reference to the Dreyfus Affair, a more modern display of irrational and avid anti-Semitism. It is in the Dreyfus affair that an innocent man is accused of espionage and is sent to jail for more than ten years, notwithstanding an overwhelming amount of evidence pointing to his innocence, simply because he is a Jew.
