  • With global climate disasters in the news every day, Glazova offers riveting insights into the natural world and is an important voice for ecopoetry.
  • Readers see the Russian and English poems on facing pages.
  • Glazova received the Andrei Bely Prize, one of Russia's most prestigious literary awards, when the original Russian edition of For the Shrew was published in 2013.
  • She is one of three Russian poets featured in Zephyr's anthology, Relocations, which was a finalist for the 2014 Best Translated Book Award.
  • Glazova has been featured in readings at NYU (2021), Harvard (2020), and at a major Russian poetry symposium at Boston University, available online.
  • Poems have appeared in the Columbia Journal and The Café Review.
