Dmitry Bykov’s new book is dedicated to the figure as signs as mysterious – Bulat Okudzhava. For several generations, it remains the standard of nobility and moral purity, and the lines from his songs serve as a kind of password – according to them, we accurately distinguish “our own” from “strangers”. However, what was the bewitching man in this thin man who sang ingenious words under the guitar? Dmitry Bykov is trying to answer this question with his book. Distribute and in detail analyzing the fate of Okudzhava, he comes to paradoxical, but convincing conclusions. Bykov believes that the key to the glory of Okudzhava lies not in his poetic or musical gift, but in a unique ability to serve as a kind of “guide” – directly, without intermediaries, translate into the words of the vibration of the surrounding world. This is a property-the gift to contact the listener-reader with the special words that go directly to the heart-and made Okudzhav, as Bykov believes, the voice and symbol of the whole era.
