Irina Georgiyevna Ratushinskaya (Russian: Ирина Георгиевна РатушинÑкаÑ) (born 1954 March 4 in Odessa, Ukraine) is a Russian lyric poet, essayist, and political dissident.
While in prison for her advocacy of human rights, she wrote some 250 poems, first scratching them into bars of soap & then, after memorizing them, washing them away. Stikhi (Poems, 1984) was published while she is imprisoned.
