Abstract:

Galina Kuznetsova was a Russian writer, poet and memorialist who belonged to the younger generation of the Russian Emigration (the first wave). Her most famous work is the so-called “Grasse Diary”. Kuznetsova’s place in the literature of the Russian emigration was determined by her liaison with Ivan Bunin. The present paper brings an analysis of certain motifs in Kuznetsova’s poetry (homeland, death, love) precisely in the context of Bunin’s poetry.
