O drugikh i o sebe - Slutskii B.

To mark the 100th anniversary of Boris Slutsky's birth (1919-1986), his autobiographical and memoir prose is published. It is known much less than his poems, because it was written in the table, with no hope of being published in life for censorship reasons. In "Notes of War" the tragedy of war is shown without smoothing sharp corners. The memories of N. Aseyev, O. Brick, K. Chukovsky, I. Ehrenburg, N. Sabolotsky, A. Twardovsky - and not only about them - are wonderfully interesting.
