1 contribution found for Russian Life and/or Chtenia.GEORGY iVANOV (1894-1958) was a leading voice of Russian literature in exile after the Revolution. A poet of noble descent, he was a member of the early avant-garde in St. Petersburg, but he emigrated in 1923 with his wife, the poet Irina Odoyevtseva, to Paris, where his poetry became increasingly negative and anti-religious. His novelistic memoirs, Petersburg Nights, published in 1928, caused a scandal for the tales he told (lies some, like Akhmatova, said) about life among the “decadents” and avant-garde in Petersburg.
