Marshak nashego detstva - Sushchinskaia Alla Faatovna

This book lifts the veil of mysteries and phenomena left to us by the classics of Russian literature known to us in every Russian family - Samuel Marshak. Despite hundreds of articles about his work, Marshak has not really studied and the facts we reveal are unknown to most. The uniqueness of the publication is given by portrait drawings of Ilya Marshak- a talented representative of the famous family name. Here for the first time the facts are put together, as Marshak, in the words of M. Gorky, "the founder" and, according to A. Fadeev, "the father of new literature for children", survived, having passed in the most dangerous years, as a tightrope walker, over the abyss of repression. About how from the attacks he was saved by M. Gorky, and then he saved from bullying and did not give up on his beliefs, from people close in spirit - neither from zoshchenko, nor from Akhmatova, nor from Harms, nor from Joseph Brodsky (shortly before his departure in 1964) ... It is phenomenal that the new "big literature for the little ones" created in the 20-50 years of the 20th century remains a favorite of children, in demand and relevant.
