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 Cafe Review. Recent Zephyr Eastern European titles have won or been short-listed for the National Book Critics Circle Award, the PEN Poetry in Translation Award, the Derek Walcott Poetry Prize, the Griffin International Poetry Prize, and the American Association of Teachers of Slavic and Eastern European Languages Book Award.
