Last Night Was Looking In My Eyes Comments

Bri, I appreciate your joke. Osip Mandelstam was not Maria’s husband. Tsvetaeva met Sergei Efron and married him in 1912. Most of their time they lived in the Crimea. After the 1917 Revolution, Efron joined the White Army. In 1939 he was arrested. Marina who lived abroad returned to Moscow to reunite with her husband. What is wrong with it?

(cont.) 2 - her life sounds somewhat tragic! though suicide can be a quick and sure relief for some, i do caution people to get counseling AND to not 'mess it up' if they try it! btw: Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938) was a Russian Jewish poet and essayist. bri (

1 - Val, i accidentally saw this as poem of the day today; i 'never' look for these! now to read it (the English version only!) . re Marina's bio: After the 1917 Revolution, Efron joined the White Army, and Marina returned to Moscow to reunite with her husband. it sounds like she had 2 husbands!
