Requiem (Rekviem)

Anna Akhmatova · Tovarishchestvo zarubezhnykh pisatelei (Association of Foreign Writers), Munich · 1963

No book-club edition is documented. The principal trap is the same Munich publisher's own later reissues: a 1969 edition adding editorial matter by Gleb Struve (his account 'Kak byl vpervye izdan "Rekviem"'), and a 1974 'third stereotype edition' of 24 pages with a Struve afterword. Both reuse the imprint and are routinely mistaken for the first — check for 23 pages, absence of any Struve material, and no stereotype-edition statement. Samizdat typescripts and later Western reprints also circulate.
