“The Gift of Solitude” is the first collection by Natalia Rusina. It includes poems from several cycles, including examples of early poetry. The poetry of Natalia Rusina is distinguished by its ethical and philosophical orientation; The author raises the themes of the structure of the universe, human moral choice, the search for harmony, goodness and justice. The artistic world of Natalia Rusina reflects images of Nature, the mysterious world of the Looking Glass, the magical and solemn St. Petersburg and others. All of them are endowed with complex philosophical semantics. The lyrical hero of Natalya Rusina is diverse: “a homeless person by nature,” an artist-dreamer, a wanderer-contemplator... Despite all the variety of images of the lyrical hero, he has an integral character, representing a sophisticated romantic personality, an adherent of high moral ideals to which the author leads his reader . Natalia Rusina’s creative method can be defined as psychological neo-romanticism.
