Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky is known to readers, first of all, as a classic of children's literature. Several generations grew up on his fairy tales, and to this day he remains one of the most published children's writers in Russia. Meanwhile, the beloved author of "Moidodyr" and "Mukhi-Tsokotukha" was also a brilliant critic, memoirist, translator, literary scholar and linguist. Chukovsky the translator gave the Russian reader a whole library of works of English and American literature, Chukovsky the memoirist - a magnificent gallery of portraits of contemporaries, Chukovsky the researcher - wonderful books about the Russian language and literature, interesting not only to specialists, but also to the widest range of readers, since "scientificity", as Chukovsky believed, is far from always combined with "dense verbal jungles". In the book "Alive as Life", the author tells in a fascinating way what a complex, amazing, wisely arranged and self-regulating system the Russian language is. The book "From Two to Five" is dedicated to children's word creation, its laws and secrets that everyone who is going to write for children needs to know. "High Art" introduces the reader to the problems of artistic translation, which, as the author believed, is not just a "craft", but a complex inspired creativity.
