HE FIRST ENGLISH TRANSLATION of the Ollty nOVel by Russia's important nineteenth-century woman writer Karolina Pavlova (1807-1893), A Double Life contrasts the world of a young woman's dreams to her waking life of vanity and cruelty. Skillfully structured, it alternâtes sharp dialogue and ironie prose description with interior monologue in verse.

The two lives dovetail in a quietly shattering conclusion.
The narrator's comment that Cecily knows "that there were even woman poets, but this was always presented to her as the most pitiable, abnormal thing, as a disastrous and dangerous illness," is the fruit of the author's own bit-ter experience.

Her work was condemned for its heardess-ness and lack of femininity, and Pavlova herself was reviled for daring to take her art as seriously as her maie contem-poraries took theirs. She spent the last forty years of her life in exile, dying in Dresden alone and forgotten. Today her verse is more widely read, and A Double Life is highly acclaimed. Pavlova has belatedly been awarded the place she deserves as one of the great writers of Russia's greatest literary âge. Vissza
