Focusing on the philosophical insights of Boris Pasternak, this collection reveals his thoughts on poetry, creativity, and the role of art in human existence. Spanning from 1910 to 1946, the texts are accompanied by extensive commentaries and an essay analyzing his novel, Doctor Zhivago, in relation to art and inspiration. Despite being celebrated as a major literary figure, Pasternak's unique perspectives on inspiration remain underappreciated. This work aims to highlight his original thinking and share the richness of his experiences with a broader audience.
