Writer Vasily Aksenov has died
One of the brightest representatives of the "sixties" - the writer Vasily Aksenov - has died. The idol of the generation, whose youth fell on the time of the "Khrushchev thaw" of the late 50s - early 60s of the XX century, died on Monday at the age of 77. The son of the repressed, an orphanage resident, a doctor, a writer, a journalist, an emigrant and a laureate of the Russian Booker, wrote such works as The Island of Crimea, Burn, Overstocked Barrel and many others.
