This samizdat (underground press) typescript includes 10 poems by Boris Pasternak (1890-1960): ‘In everything, I want to reach’, first part of ‘The Wind’ (‘Who’ll be honored and praised’), ‘It is not seemly to be famous’, ‘Silence’, ‘Bread’, ‘Hamlet’, ‘In Memory of Marina Tsvetaeva’, ‘In the Hospital’, ‘Bacchanalia’ and ‘The Garden of Gethsemane’. 
These are mostly Pasternak’s poems written between 1956 and 1957, with the exception of 'In Memory of Marina Tsvetaeva', which was composed in 1943. They were intended for Pasternak's 1956 poetry collection, which was never published. The collection also includes two poems, 'Hamlet' and 'The Garden of Gethsemane', which appeared in 'Doctor Zhivago'. It is difficult to trace the exact source of this typescript, as some poems were published in Soviet periodicals between 1956 and 1965, while the poems from 'Doctor Zhivago' appeared in the 1958 Milan edition.
This copy comes from the collection of the prominent writer, journalist, and memoirist Emily Mindlin (1900–1981). Emily maintained close relationships with literary figures such as Osip Mandelstam, Marina Tsvetaeva, Andrei Platonov, and Mikhail Bulgakov. From 1919 to 1921, he lived in Feodosia, where he actively participated in the Feodosia Literary and Artistic Circle (FLAK) and regarded Maximilian Voloshin as a mentor. In 1928, Emily joined the icebreaker ‘Krasin’ as a journalist, taking part in the expedition to rescue General Umberto Nobile and his crew. After World War II, he headed the literary department at the Central Children's Theater. However, in 1955, he was arrested for making ‘anti-Soviet statements’ and sentenced to a year in a labor camp.
