PROFESSOR BOWRA'S second volume of translations of Russian verse comes as an additional reminder, to those who do not read the language, of the abundance, variety and special qualities of Russian poetry. In a sense, the world fame of Russia's novelists has done a disservice to knowledge of the country's literature abroad by associating its achievements so pre-eminently with prose fiction.
