“my blue song and other songs” by Vladimir Koshelev

The debut poetry collection by the poet, editor, and translator Vladimir Koshelev, which includes poems written between 2019 and 2023, was published in early 2024 by SOYAPRESS. According to Dmitry Kuzmin, a poet and editor of the journal Vozdukh, “equally far from Parshchikov’s irony and Tavrov’s fervor, Koshelev’s poems reveal, within a metarealist universe filled with figurative links and resonances, a permanent struggle with lack—a precarious balance between rapture and anxiety.”
