as explained by our very own (?) loyal never failing to be informative Uncle G:
Boris Leonidovich Pasternak (10 February 1890 – 30 May 1960) was a Nobel Prize - winning Russian, novelist and translator of Goethe and Shakespeare.
In Russia, Pasternak is most celebrated as a poet.
My Sister Life, written in 1917, is arguably the most influential collection of poetry published in the Russian Language in the 20th century.
In the West he is best known for his epic novel Doctor Zhivago, a tragedy whose events span the last period of the Russian Empire and the early days of the Soviet Union.
It was first translated and published in Italy in 1957. He helped give birth to the dissident movement with the publication of Doctor Zhivago.
