Today, when lifetime half-bans are behind us, posthumous posthumous eulogies have died down, and the period of Vladimir Vysotsky's cultural canonization as a nationwide bard and an equally nationwide beloved actor has arrived, the uniqueness of his phenomenon has become obvious, which even decades later does not lend itself to "appropriation", to transformation into a "solidly cast monument", but continues to exist separately, to follow "its own track" - "without insurance", "in spite of ropes, cables, wires", behind the line of "red flags". This isolation, separateness, irreducibility to common formulas and well-trodden paths (which makes the author truly alive), paradoxically, is combined with his extraordinary receptivity to other creative voices, to the figurative structure of high poetry and proseisms of everyday speech, with openness to all kinds of styles and genres, themes and moods, verse sizes and lyrical roles. Sharp - to bare nerves - sense of life and poetic truth, absolute hearing, rejecting any false intonation, an incredible variety of roles, not played on stage and in the movies, but lived in songs and poems - all this polyphony of meanings and images contained the pages of this book. This edition presents an extensive collection of poetic works created by Vladimir Vysotsky from the late 1950s to 1980, as well as selected prose of the poet.
