Найти книгу: "Mind Easing"

Перед вами не игра и не фальсификация. Это – последний роман Василия Аксенова, публикуемый, к огромному сожалению, уже после смерти Автора. Неоконченный автобиографический роман о детстве и юности, сильный и красивый, под стать самому автору, – не просто портрет совсем еще юного Аксенова, увиденного самим же собой с высоты прожитых лет. Это памятник эпохе богатырей, чья молодость пришлась на ужасные годы Великой Отечественной и чью судьбу определила война на годы вперед. Аксенов, как никто, умел в своих книгах концентрировать счастье мира – щедро делиться им с читателем, даря шанс взглянуть на порой грустные и страшные вещи взглядом мужественным и светлым. Роман выходит с короткими предисловиями-репликами коллег и друзей Аксенова, каждый из которых вспомнил об авторе что-то очень личное и доброе, словно по кирпичикам воссоздавая образ Аксенова – философа, стиляги, борца и просто очень обаятельного человека. «Ленд-лизовские. Lend-leasing» – и финал, и одновременно начало Большого творческого пути, последнее звено в цепи произведений Аксенова, смыкающееся с первыми повестями, принесшими автору успех и любовь миллионов. Эта книга – подарок всем читателям Аксенова, сегодняшний привет из далекого прошлого и напоминание о том, что настоящие писатели никогда не умирают.
