Regina Derieva is one of Russia's leading contemporary poets. Her work has received commendations from a number of prominent authors including the late Nobel laureate Joseph Brodsky and the contemporary Australian poet, Les Murray. Derieva embodies the new internationalism of poetry that has erupted since the fall of the Soviet Union and the opening of Eastern Europe. She represents a poetry freed of national and cultural boundaries and addressed to an audience linked by a larger vision of human possibilities.
"Regina Derieva [is] one of the outstanding writers of the contemporary Russian diaspora."
Tomas Venclova
"… hers is a brave and eminently readable voice."
