This samizdat booklet with “Yuri Zhivago’s poems” by Boris Pasternak was written in the late 1940s. Samizdat was underground literature that circulated in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe during the communist regimes. Pasternak's novel Doctor Zhivago, which ends with a cycle of poems, was banned in the Soviet Union. In the booklet there are notes by Olga Ivinskaya, whom Pasternak lived with.
The booklet was presented to the Nobel Prize Museum by the Pasternak family in 2000. - Pristagare
