Boris Slutsky (1919-1986) is a major original figure of Russian poetry of the second half of the twentieth century. This title presents a study of the poet. It argues that Slutsky's body of work amounts to a Holy Writ of his times which fuses biblical prooftexts and stylistics with the language of late Russian Modernism and Soviet newspeak.
