  1. No se què dir d'aquest autor rus... podria divagar, fins i tot imaginar altres paisatges per on m'enduria. ;-)
    He vist que has incorporat un molinet de vent molt maco a la teva presentació, m'agrada.

    Aferradetes, Sean.

    1. Prishvin in a way was fighting windmills, Paula. He corresponded with Trotsky during the revolutionary period, and "became acquainted with the Bolshevik legal system and its prisons as a result of an insubordinate article".
      For a long time, remained unknown that he kept a diary in secret for almost fifty years.
      After Prishvin's death, his widow and an executor hid his written legacy from the Stalinist-influenced public so as not to jeopardise it. Many notebooks were later transcribed. The first of planned four volumes of the diaries, with entries from 1917 to 1920, was published in German translation in 2019.
