“FATES INTERTWINED”: ON THE BOOK “SOUL THAT HAD ONCE BEEN BORN SOMEWHERE: MARINA TSVETAEVA AND KRISTIN LAVRANSDATTER” BY LINA KERTMAN

The book “Soul that had once been born somewhere: Marina Tsvetaeva and Kristin Lavransdatter” is the first among large literary monographs by Lina Lvovna Kertman who specializes in life and works of Marina Tsvetaeva and her circle. This book has first seen the light of day in the now far-off year of 2000. Issued by the “Vozvrashchenie” publishing house in an edition limited to 1000 copies, it became an instant rarity of a book. In 2016 the same “Vozvrashchenie” publishing house made a reissue of it.
