I have today's press and decisively to anything and I can’t complain about anyone. Just a rogue. It would always be so.

The sun, having raised, looks at Windows . A transparent forest alone blackes, the hut already froze a finger. In short, a day was a day, a day turned out to be: either the bear died in the forest, or the Decembrists finally defeated .
- Olga Grinkrug ("Gazeta.ru") reviews the book "Mitka" by Vladimir Shinkarev "Actually Literature" (St. Petersburg: Grand). "A section on alcoholism is recommended to skip as excessively serious." As always, elegant. But this time also briefly. That is, a congenial object. Olga - well done.
- Lisa Novikova (Kommersant-Daily) reports that yesterday the short list of the Antibuker 2000 Prize was published. Lizin's sober note was the only current message about this event. Lisa is a hero.
- In the appendix to the “NG” “Figures and Faces” , Apollo Musaytov talks with (already ex-former) chairman of the Buker jury Oleg Chukhontsev. "I put a hand on the heart, I will say that from the whole diverse set there was not my thing. I love sophistication and simplicity." Oleg Grigoryevich is right, a thousand times right. And, most importantly, is sincere.
Incredibly successful release "Exlibris" NG
- The informative and timely interview of the Locum leader of the Perm Foundation "Yuryatin" (who has just received a small booker) Marina Abasheva Ilya Kukulina .
- " Five Books of the Week " are selected wisely and care.
- Probably, Gleb Schulpyakov , who generally sets the tone of the number; His pen owns a brilliant editorial with an unpleasant analysis of the epic J.K. Roling about Harry Potter and an elegant review column in the section "Fiction". Shulpyakov - talent.
- The entire mentioned section is dedicated to poetry, as if the ex-libris decided to compete with their twins-rivals from the "Book Review". Larisa Miller reads in the "quiet coat" of Vladimir Gandelsman (St. Petersburg: Pushkin Fund), Tatyana Kasina analyzes the two -volume building "Polish poets of the twentieth century" (St. Petersburg: Aletaia; compilers Natalya Astafyeva and Vladimir Britanish), Ilya Kukulin traces the "risky" Evolution of the poet Verta Pavlova for her material. The collection "Fourth Dream" (M.: Zakharov). It is very difficult to write about poetry, but the authors are on top. Have you ever tried to read the coat?
- I do not want to offend even Nikolai Alexandrov , whose note " To the opening of the premium season in Russia " is not a comment, but some kind of troupe of walking truths. Someone must speak the tsars with a smile, and the dictors of the Echo of Moscow ate this field at this field. Nikolai is a direct person, without complexes. It will give a reason more serious - I will crush him as I can.
The warm wind will still bother, you are my playful vigures. Everything will work out for us. Everything is ahead of us.
