Viktor Tsoi was an ordinary boy from Leningrad, but at the peak of the 1980s, he became the conscience and voice of his generation. And in August of that far-off 1990, in an instant he turned into a legend. Vitaliy Kalgin tells about Viktor Tsoi—the artist and musician, leader of the Leningrad rock group “KINO.” More than twenty years ago, Tsoi died in a car accident, but he still remains the star named the Sun. Tsoi’s death truly became his second birth. The book depicts the world of the Leningrad rock scene of the 1980s, uses some previously unpublished testimonies and materials from personal archives, and unique photographs that allow for a truthful picture of the life, work, and tragic death of the idol of Soviet youth.
