Lampada. Sobranie stikhotvorenii, Kniga pervaia [The icon-lamp. Collected poems. Book one (All published)].
First edition: Ivanov’s last collection of poems before his emigration. ‘Never regularly employed and having made many illwishers through his penchant pour épatage, Ivanov led the last years of his life in semi-starvation, … and died in misery and desperation. Only recently has he begun to be recognized as one of the leading Russian poets of the 20th century’ (Terras).
