Ostrov lichnost' - Aksenov Vasilii Pavlovich

"Island of Personality" is a unique book, which includes essays and journalism by Vasily Aksyonov, including his radio appearances, which have not previously been published.

Aksyonov never abstracted from the misfortunes of the world around him, rejected the possibility of solitude in the "ivory tower". "As a writer, I am completely independent, I am an anarchist, where I will be carried by a pen, where I will swim without paying attention to anyone. But as a citizen I feel obliged to participate in political life, at least in part," he said.
