“The Strange Case of the Siege Notes in Diplomatic Pouch”

For some time, I’ve been fascinated by Harrison E. Salisbury’s book 900 Days (1969) published during the Cold War by an author who was not a frequent visitor to the site of his research (though Salisbury was in Leningrad in 1944, right after the end of the Siege). This study of the urban disaster impressed me by the richness of sources. Yet how did the author manage to collect this vast, cacophonous and exciting chorus of witnesses over the Iron Curtain? One finding in the Salisbury papers sheds light on this question – and tells us a story of the unlikely collaboration between a Leningrad scholar and the American journalist.

Polina Barskova was born in Leningrad. She received a BA from Saint Petersburg State University and an MA and PhD from the University of California, Berkeley. She is associate professor of Russian literature at Hampshire College and author of eight books of poetry in Russian and three in English translation. She is also the author of Living Pictures, which received the 2015 Andrey Bely Prize, and the editor of Written in the Dark: Five Poets in the Siege of Leningrad (Brooklyn: Ugly Duckling Press, 2016). Barskova is one of the world's leading experts on the literature and culture of the Siege. Her monograph Besieged Leningrad: Aesthetic Responses to Urban Disaster was published by Northern Illinois University Press in 2017.
