Description
This audiobook contains poems from the last years, from the collection “Yasno” (“Clear”).
Dmitry Bykov is a talented contemporary writer and brilliant publicist, biographer of Boris Pasternak, Bulat Okudzhava, and Vladimir Mayakovsky, winner of numerous literary awards, a public figure, and a schoolteacher. But above all, Dmitry Bykov is—poet. When asked what genre he identifies with, Bykov answers: “A poet, from time to time writing prose so as not to go mad when there are no poems…”
Bykov’s poems—sparklingly funny and ironic, brazen and charming, lyrically sad and life-affirming—are love confessions and political feuilletons, elegant ballads and rowdy little quatrains, witty observations and philosophical reflections about life, sarcastic remarks about the present and ironic excursions into history.
Some of the poems are read by the author himself—Bykov declaims them just as brightly and emotionally as he writes.
