A huge number of books, articles, studies, dissertations have been written about Vasily Vasilyevich Rozanov (1856-1919), but he remains the most mysterious, the most controversial character of the Silver Age. A conservative, a decadent, a patriot, a fighter for Christ, a statist, an anarchist, a cleric, an erotomaniac, a monarchist, a Judeophobe, in love with everything Jewish, an uninhibited journalist, a philosopher of sex, a free prisoner of his own impressions, he lived an unusually difficult, passionate and bright life. Having become one of the most famous Russian writers of his time, he treated literary fame with disdain, and at the end of his life he witnessed the collapse of both the Russian state and his own family. Rozanov's story is a story of brilliant victories and defeats, happiness and unhappiness, of what Blok called the immutable law of the heart: "joy is one suffering." And for all these feelings, all sensations, all events and moments of life, V.V. knew how to choose the most precise and magical, the most "Rozanov" words, which have not lost their charm even a century later. The author of the book, writer Alexei Varlamov, does not shy away from the sharp and difficult questions of the biography of his hero and invites the reader to look for answers to them together with him.
