Proffer on Brodsky

       At her Book Haven weblog Cynthia Haven enthuses about Ardis-co-founder Ellendea Proffer Teasley's Joseph Brodsky-focused memoir, Бродский среди нас ('Brodsky Among Us'), in The book that's rocking Russia: Ellendea Proffer's Brodsky Among Us is a bestseller.
       As she notes:

Here's why this story is important here, now: most of his poetic career was in the U.S., not Russia

       Nice to see a book like this can meet with such success in contemporary Russia -- and surely it's something that should also appear in English. Meanwhile, see also the АСТ publicity page.
