A Guide to a Renamed City: Selected Essays by Joseph Brodsky
This bilingual edition brings together three of Joseph Brodsky’s most poignant essays: “Less Than One,” “A Guide to a Renamed City,” and “Trophies.” Composed in English during the 1980s and 1990s, these pieces were originally published in New York in the collections Less Than One and On Grief and Reason. They form a reflective tapestry of childhood memories, family, and life in post-war Leningrad—the city Brodsky was forced to leave when he emigrated from the Soviet Union.
In these essays, the Nobel laureate navigates the terrain of a renamed city, exploring how place, loss, and identity shape a life. The texts are presented here in their original English alongside Russian translations, offering readers a rare opportunity to experience Brodsky’s precise, lyrical prose in both languages. For fans of literature, Russian culture, or Liverpool FC’s own poetic history, this volume is a window into exile, memory, and the enduring power of words.
