Tribute to Akhmatova
Sonia wrote in to tell me about the existence of this monument (top) commemorating Anna Akhmatova in front of the prison she stood in anguish in front of for seventeen months and wrote about in "Requiem." That's the prison above. The poem is a better monument to me, but this is pretty classy too.
Currently I am an English teacher at Copenhagen International School in Denmark. Previously, I taught for six years in Shanghai, China; two years at AISR in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; seven years at TCIS in Taejon, South Korea; one year at Monocan High School in Richmond, VA; four years at Madison Central High School in Richmond, KY; and four years at Alief Hastings High School in Alief, TX.
