Brodsky Abroad: Empire, Tourism, Nostalgia

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the themes of exile and travel, Sanna Turoma analyzes Joseph Brodsky's poetry and essays inspired by his journeys to Mexico, Brazil, Turkey, and Venice. Despite being expelled from the Soviet Union, Brodsky's experiences abroad shaped his literary voice, challenging traditional views of him as merely an émigré poet. Turoma contextualizes his travel writing within contemporary critiques of travel, examining how his work responds to both his exile and the complexities of the postmodern and postcolonial world.
