Description

The author of this book, Mikhail Nozhkin, is known in Russia as a popular film and variety performer, a poet, and the author of many songs that have sounded on stage, in films, on television, and on the radio for many years—and, most importantly, in many of our homes. But few know him as a prose writer, a playwright, a publicist… If you want, that’s easy to fix by reading his two-volume works.

The volume you are holding is called “Be a Human!” This is the main theme of the author’s entire creative and life path.

There are many songs in the book—old and new, lyrical and humorous, serious and not-so-serious. You will be introduced to a fun parody puppet show for adults. In the section “From Future Memoirs,” special interest is the author’s recollection of His Holiness Alexy II, the Moscow and All Russia Patriarch. Then you can plunge into a cheerful—and even mischievous—atmosphere of a modern musical.

And the book ends with a detective, sharp, two-part film novella about the work of our special services.

The author’s only request is to pay attention to the years when the works were created. This is important for understanding many problems that happened—and are happening—in our country.

The book is intended for a wide range of readers.
