Alexander Blok — the greatest poet, whose works defined the magical sound of the poetry of the Silver Age and became a link between modern literature and classical Russian poetry. According to Konstantin Paustovsky, Blok's poems, which unite music, poetry, and thought, — are a kind of magic, and like all magic, they are inexplicable and tormenting. «It is almost impossible to talk about them. They need to be reread, repeated, experiencing each time a heartbeat, reveling in their languorous melodies and constantly being amazed by the fact that they suddenly and forever enter memory...» The book includes poems by Alexander Blok written in various years of his life, as well as the poem «Revenge», in which the author's tragic worldview is refracted.
