Her style, characterised by its economy and emotional restraint, was strikingly original and distinctive to her contemporaries. The strong and clear leading female voice struck a new chord in Russian poetry.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington11-5">[3]</a> Her writing can be said to fall into two periods – the early work (1912–25) and her later work (from around 1936 until her death), divided by a decade of reduced literary output.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington11-5">[3]</a> Her work was <a href="/wiki/Censorship_in_the_Soviet_Union" title="Censorship in the Soviet Union">condemned and censored</a> by <a href="/wiki/Stalinism" title="Stalinism">Stalinist</a> authorities, and she is notable for choosing not to emigrate and remaining in the <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet Union</a>, acting as witness to the events around her. Her perennial themes include meditations on time and memory, and the difficulties of living and writing in the shadow of <a href="/wiki/Stalinism" title="Stalinism">Stalinism</a>. Primary sources of information about Akhmatova's life are relatively scant, as war, revolution and the Soviet regime caused much of the written record to be destroyed.

It promoted the use of craft and rigorous poetic form over mysticism or spiritual in-roads to composition, favouring the concrete over the ephemeral.<a href="#cite_note-Wells8-17">[15]</a> Akhmatova modeled its principles of writing with clarity, simplicity, and disciplined form.<a href="#cite_note-Who-59">[50]</a> Her first collections Evening (1912) and Rosary (1914) received wide critical acclaim and made her famous from the start of her career. They contained brief, psychologically taut pieces, acclaimed for their classical diction, telling details, and the skilful use of colour.<a href="#cite_note-Wells6-21">[18]</a> Evening and her next four books were mostly <a href="/wiki/Lyric_poetry" title="Lyric poetry">lyric</a> miniatures on the theme of love, shot through with sadness. Her early poems usually picture a man and a woman involved in the most poignant, ambiguous moment of their relationship, much imitated and later parodied by <a href="/wiki/Vladimir_Nabokov" title="Vladimir Nabokov">Nabokov</a> and others.<a href="#cite_note-Wells6-21">[18]</a> Critic Roberta Reeder notes that the early poems always attracted large numbers of admirers: "For Akhmatova was able to capture and convey the vast range of evolving emotions experienced in a love affair, from the first thrill of meeting, to a deepening love contending with hatred, and eventually to violent destructive passion or total indifference. But [...] her poetry marks a radical break with the erudite, ornate style and the mystical representation of love so typical of poets like <a href="/wiki/Alexander_Blok" title="Alexander Blok">Alexander Blok</a> and <a href="/wiki/Andrey_Bely" class="mw-redirect" title="Andrey Bely">Andrey Bely</a>. Her lyrics are composed of short fragments of simple speech that do not form a logical coherent pattern. Instead, they reflect the way we actually think, the links between the images are emotional, and simple everyday objects are charged with psychological associations. Like Alexander Pushkin, who was her model in many ways, Akhmatova was intent on conveying worlds of meaning through precise details."<a href="#cite_note-StalinYears-72">[62]</a> Akhmatova often complained that the critics "walled her in" to their perception of her work in the early years of romantic passion, despite major changes of theme in the later years of The Terror. This was mainly due to the secret nature of her work after the public and critical effusion over her first volumes. The risks during the purges were very great. Many of her close friends and family were exiled, imprisoned or shot; her son was under constant threat of arrest, she was often under close surveillance.<a href="#cite_note-StalinYears-72">[62]</a> Following artistic repression and public condemnation by the state in the 1920s, many within literary and public circles, at home and abroad, thought she had died.<a href="#cite_note-Harrington16-38">[30]</a><a href="#cite_note-Martin7-42">[34]</a> Her readership generally did not know her later opus, the railing passion of <a href="/wiki/Requiem_(Anna_Akhmatova)" title="Requiem (Anna Akhmatova)">Requiem</a> or Poem without a Hero and her other scathing works, which were shared only with a very trusted few or circulated in secret by word of mouth (<a href="/wiki/Samizdat" title="Samizdat">samizdat</a>). Between 1935 and 1940 Akhmatova composed, worked and reworked the long poem Requiem in secret, a lyrical cycle of lamentation and witness, depicting the suffering of the common people under Soviet terror.<a href="#cite_note-Who-59">[50]</a> She carried it with her as she worked and lived in towns and cities across the Soviet Union. It was conspicuously absent from her collected works, given its explicit condemnation of the purges. The work in Russian finally appeared in book form in Munich in 1963, the whole work not published within USSR until 1987.<a href="#cite_note-Martin12-58">[49]</a><a href="#cite_note-Harrington20-67">[57]</a> It consists of ten numbered poems that examine a series of emotional states, exploring suffering, despair, devotion, rather than a clear narrative. Biblical themes such as <a href="/wiki/Christ%27s_crucifixion" class="mw-redirect" title="Christ's crucifixion">Christ's crucifixion</a> and the devastation of <a href="/wiki/Mary,_Mother_of_Jesus" class="mw-redirect" title="Mary, Mother of Jesus">Mary, Mother of Jesus</a> and <a href="/wiki/Mary_Magdalene" title="Mary Magdalene">Mary Magdalene</a>, reflect the ravaging of Russia, particularly witnessing the harrowing of women in the 1930s. It represented, to some degree, a rejection of her own earlier romantic work as she took on the public role as chronicler of the Terror. This is a role she holds to this day.<a href="#cite_note-WellsRequiem-73">[63]</a> Her essays on <a href="/wiki/Pushkin" class="mw-redirect" title="Pushkin">Pushkin</a> and Poem Without a Hero, her longest work, were only published after her death.

Throughout the following years, the figurine was reproduced multiple times on different occasions: once in 1954, on her 65th birthday, as she was fully recognised and praised again following <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Stalin" title="Joseph Stalin">Stalin</a>'s death, and again in 1965 as both a tribute to her being short-listed for the <a href="/wiki/Nobel_Prize_in_Literature" title="Nobel Prize in Literature">Nobel Prize</a> in 1965<a href="#cite_note-Nobel1965-4">[2]</a> and for her 75th birthday a year earlier. This was the last time the porcelain figurine was produced during her lifetime. The figurine was so popular that it was reproduced after her passing, once for what would have been her 85th birthday in 1974, and again for her 100th birthday in 1988, making it one of the most popular and widely available porcelain figurines in the <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">USSR</a>. After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1993, there was an immense surge in Akhmatova's popularity and her porcelain figurine was mass-produced yet again, this time in a plain grey dress with a yellow shawl.
