Paths of the Beggar Woman
by Marina Tsvetaeva
Translated by Belinda Cooke
Worple Press, 2008, pp.133
The title of this book is an attempt to show Tsvetaeva as just one of Stalin's many victims, as well as a woman driven by a single-minded pursuit of her poetic muse. The 'Beggar woman' draws attention both to her desperate poverty and literal need to beg at times and to the various hyperbolic female selves seen in the poetry.
