Abstract

Boris Pasternak and Marina Tsvetaeva kept an intense correspondence from 1922 until mid-1930’s. Throughout this period, according to Catherine Ciepiela, the authors take turns postponing a prospective meeting, and they often turn their letters into poetic laboratories in which they seem to create an unique love language with some recurring images. This essay intends to explore the recurring mountain metaphor in Tsvetaeva’s letters between 1922-1926.
