The Noise of Time: Selected Prose

Osip Mandelstam has in recent years come to be seen as a central figure in European modernism. Though known primarily as a poet, Mandelstam worked in many styles: autobiography, short story, travel writing, and polemic. Mandelstam's biographer, Clarence Brown, presents a collection of the poet's prose works that illuminates Mandelstam's far-ranging talent and places him within the canon of European modernism.

This volume includes Mandelstam's The Noise of Time, a series of autobiographical sketches; The Egyptian Stamp, a novella; Fourth Prose; and the famous travel memoirs Theodosia and Journey to Armenia.
