"About the body of the soul"

Dmitry Bykov: Lyudmila Ulitskaya acts in a very good literary tradition. She combines biological education with the occupation of purely humanitarian - with writing. And that is why she so prophetically describes the metaphysics of the body and, if you like, bodily problems of the spirit.

Our conversation with her on these topics will be especially interesting to the so -called “doubtful”. After all, there are “comprehending” who have already believed completely either in the absence of God, or in His existence. And it is not interesting to argue with them.

But Lyudmila Ulitskaya and I will talk about what is not entirely clear.

Come to the Gogol Center to hear from the lips of DB the verses that he considers to be the main ones.

Tickets, online broadcast-L.Pryamaya.ru/festival2019

Those who have long loved Dmitry Bykov’s lyrics and sometimes repeat to themselves: “He torments her so as if he is growing his wife”, “... grapes are growing, grapes” - or mutters about “an unusually large supply of moral rightness ...”, come to hear from the lips of DB poems that he considers to be the main ones. First, get acquainted with the author’s intonation, and then, of course, re -read and find your ...

And those who did not know that Bykov was primarily a lyrical poet, come to get acquainted with him.

In verses, he is gentle and vulnerable. In verses, he does not come and does not defend, but speaks as it is. Only the truth, nothing but the truth. In verses, he does not know how to pretend and let himself - this is the horror and happiness of large poets.

Dmitry Bykov: “Yes, I am primarily a poet, but I can’t help but write on the anger of the day, because I can’t, when someone is strangling with socks and replacing oxygen with hydrogen sulfide. But the lyrics are now more important, since the main mental qualities-courage, tenderness, consciousness of the secret community connecting us-are still brought up by not journalism and not satyra, but lyrical poetry. ”

Mikhail Zygar: While my friends went to nightclubs, I went to war. For the first time I went to war shortly after 20 and worked in hot spots for another 10 years. Then I was lucky - I managed to jump off. And he did not go crazy. Many of my friends were less fortunate.
