The collection of critical and autobiographical essays from Nobel Prize-winner Joseph Brodsky that catapulted the author--heretofore known more for his poetry and translations--into the forefront of the Third Wave of Russian émigré writers.

Less Than One, which won a National Book Critics Circle Award, opens and closes with revealing autobiographical essay.1 different editions
