| Andrei Navrozov Andrei Navrozov, poet and writer, was born in Moscow in 1956, grandson of the playwright Andrei Navrozov (1899–1941), son of the essayist and translator Lev Navrozov. Andrei lived in Russia until his family emigrated to the US in 1972, where he graduated from Yale University with a B.A. in English. In 1985, Navrozov moved to England, where he found employment as a freelance literary journalist, contributing to the books pages of virtually every broadsheet newspaper in Britain, and eventually becoming a British citizen. In 1990 a book of his English translations of Boris Pasternak's early poems, 'Second Nature', was published and a second edition followed in 2003. From 1985 to 1995 Navrozov contributed nearly 1,000 articles and columns on literary, cultural and political subjects to The Spectator, The Times, The Daily Telegraph and The Guardian. In 1993 Pan Macmillan published his autobiography, 'The Gingerbread Race: A Life in the Closing World Once Called Free'. In 1998 Navrozov left Britain for Italy and after living in Rome, Florence, Venice and Palermo, he published in 2003 a book of his impressions, 'Italian Carousel: Scenes of Internal Exile'. In 2004 came a collection of verse in Russian, 'Strashnaya Krasota (Awful Beauty)'. Since then Navrozov has been working on a trilogy of novels in English, entitled respectively 'Awful Beauty: Confessions of a Coward', 'Earthly Love: A Day in the Life of a Hypocrite', and 'Incredible Trust: When the Liar Falls Silent'. |
