Singing the self: Guitar poetry, community, and identity in the post-stalin period

Research output: Book/ReportBook

Abstract

This book is a study of a Soviet cultural phenomenon of the 1960s and 70s known as guitar poetry - songs accompanied by guitar and considered poetry in much the same way as those of, for example, Bob Dylan. Platonov's is the most comprehensive book in English to date to analyze guitar poetry, which has rarely received scholarly attention outside of Russia.
