Steiger, who preserved his archive. This electronic collection of poems, the most complete to date, is divided into several parts: 1. Collection of poems "Swan Carousel" (Berlin: Petropolis, 1935).2. Poems published by the author in emigrant periodicals (mainly from the 1930s)3. Poems written in the late period, published in posthumous publications. The best emigration critics highly appreciated her work: G.V. Adamovich saw in Golovina’s work a special way of creating artistic expressiveness. In a review of the collection “Swan Carousel”, the critic called the poetess “the most talented poet in Prague” (Last news. 1935. January 24). “The inspired curiosity of a storyteller” - this is how V.F.
