MY ACQUAINTANCE WITH VLODOV
Speech at the evening in memory of Yuri Vlodov
in the club "Dacha on Pokrovka"

Mayakovsky has poems: “I am walking handsome, twenty-two years old” ... I met Yuri Vlodov at the age of twenty (twenty-one years old). When I entered the Literary Institute. I came to Moscow from Ryazan, from the provinces. And it seemed to me that all the people who were in Moscow and at the Literary Institute and the hostel were all very good and great people. And I treated everyone I met on my way with great respect. And so I met in the hostel near the elevator, on the stairs, Yuri Vlodov. He lived there with someone illegally... as I now understand. And I thought that he - works at the Literary Institute, a professor of poetry. He stopped me (in front of the guards) and slowly, solidly began to ask me who I was, where I came from. He said: "I am the poet Yuri Vlodov ..."

I thought: “Something I don’t know such a poet. But I do not know all the best poets ... "

He asked me: "Read me your poems." I read something to him. He said, "I can help you get into the Literary Institute." I said: “Yes, I don’t need help. I have already passed the creative competition of 100 people for one place and passed almost all the exams for five. I have only one exam left to pass, and I already scored 20 points without it...” He said: “My wife is the famous Latvian poetess Mara Griezane. I write poetry for her, and therefore she became very famous, published in all the most prestigious newspapers and magazines. I thought: “She is famous, but I don’t know such a poetess. But I don’t know all the best poets.” I said: “I would never agree to someone writing my poetry for me. I want to write my own poems. He said: “Tonight I am here in the hostel, gathering my students, including applicants, in such and such a room. Come there. There everyone will read their poems. And you respect your…”

In the evening I came to that room. There were many boys and girls, students and applicants, they all sat along the walls, on chairs, and in turn, in a circle, read their poems. And I read mine. And Vlodov sat on a chair in the center of the room and broadcast, talked about poetry, and also read his poems, which seemed strange for that time, for the 70s. And in his verses Christ, the Cross, Magdalene, Satan, Judas appeared ... the heroes of the Bible. But we in Russia then had an atheistic state, none of the young people of my generation read the Bible and did not know the way. In addition, Vlodov in his poems gave his own interpretation of the Bible, which seemed blasphemous to me personally ... just like Anya Gedymin, who said that she even quarreled with Vlodov because of this ... He said that Christ drank wine and mingled with harlots...

And then from below, from the first floor, a janitor with a mop burst into the room and shouted: “Ah! That's where you all are! Come on - march all from here! And she turned to me and said: “Ah! And you-s-s are here! - Did she remember me, or what, when Vlodov talked to me on the stairs? I was somehow noticeable ... everyone remembered me very much. I had a short dress, forty centimeters above the knees, and my hair was loose ... And the look was frivolous ...

And so I passed my final exam. And I went to look at the list of applicants who were admitted to the institute. I searched, searched for myself there and did not find my last name. I went to the rector Pimenov Vladimir Fedorovich and asked: “Vladimir Fedorovich, why am I not on the list? I passed a creative competition of one hundred people for a place, and passed all the exams, and scored passing marks ... "- He said:" The typist, when she was typing the list, missed your last name out of absent-mindedness ... And then ... what was there in dorm?" - "What was in the hostel?" - “You were sitting somewhere in some company where everyone drank and smoked ...” - “Yes, we just read poetry ... But I don’t drink or smoke at all and I never drank or smoked.” - “There was also a girl from Irkutsk ... she didn’t enter either ...” - “Yes, I don’t know her ... and I don’t know anyone from that company ...” - “And there was also a boy from Kuzbass ... He didn’t enter either ... ”-“ And I don’t know this boy ... ”- Then it turned out that almost none of those guys and girls who read poetry that evening in Vlodov’s company did not enter the Literary institute. None!

(Lyudmila Osokina (commentary): “Well, yes, Vlodov was on the black list. He was under the supervision of the authorities. And all the people who were next to him, even completely innocent, and completely random, also fell into the black list and under surveillance No wonder you didn't get into the Literary Institute, and those guys and girls didn't either...")

Pimenov told me: "Come to enter the institute in a year." - "Without exams?" - With exams. (Laughter in the audience.) I did not return to Ryazan, but got a job at a bakery, according to the limit, and worked for a whole year at this bakery, at the hardest physical work. And a year later she still entered the Literary Institute. And when I was already finishing it, Vlodov again appeared in the hostel, and again met me on the stairs and said: “A married couple sheltered me here in my room, today I gather my students there, we will arrange an evening of poetry, we will read poetry. Come there, read your poems...” (Laughter in the hall.) I had nothing to be afraid of. I had already graduated from the Literary Institute, Vlodov could not harm me. And I came and read my poems in a circle of students. And Vlodov then told me in front of everyone: “Now new girls have appeared in poetry. They will be famous poetesses: Anna Gedymin, Inna Kabysh and Elena Isaeva (he did not know Lyudmila Osokina then, this was before 1980). But when they become famous, you will already be a classic, Vlodov told me... (Laughter in the hall.) And the main thing is that it, his prophecy... is already coming true... (Laughter in the hall.)

Vlodov wrote:

Poet and God wander the world

No money, no wagons, no luggage...

He himself wandered around the world ... he had neither his own corner, nor money, nor things, nothing ... and he lived, you won’t understand where and with whom.

After graduation, I went back to Ryazan. And when I moved to Moscow, in the 90s, I already came across him in the Yunost magazine, under Viktor Lipatov, and invited me to his poetry evening in the editorial office: “Come here on such and such a date. I will read my poems." Then he called me and said, "Am I a genius?" - "Genius". - "And the wife of a genius should be the queen of poetry?" - "Should". - And his wife was no longer Mara Griezane, but Lyudmila Osokina. - "And a genius's wife should be a member of the Writers' Union?" - "Should". - "Write her a recommendation to the Writers' Union." I sent her a recommendation...

Lyudmila was just reading Vlodov's poems to us, she reads them better than Vlodov himself. And she knows them all by heart! Sometimes we don’t remember all of our poems, but she remembers all his poems! And she reads them as if they were her poems, and she adds something of her own to them with her intonations, her manner and reveals some such hidden meanings in them ... Lyudmila was Vlodov's wife, lived with him for many years .. And she described in her memoirs how she suffered with him, God forbid! He was a hard man, and it was hard for her to live with him. No woman could stand it. But she survived! She does not sink in water (and does not burn in fire), she is unsinkable! Vlodov should erect a monument to her for everything she has done and is doing for him!

Yuri Vlodov has poems:

You must die to be reborn

And live forever.

Only now, when Yury Vlodov's books are published through the efforts and efforts of Lyudmila Osokina, have I begun to truly discover his poetry. He died to be reborn through his Word... And he is reborn and will live...

Nina Krasnova, 2011

UNIQUE AND UNIQUE

Why modern critics do not see our "gold", which is worthy of attention? Because Russian gold lies outside the travel routes that critics habitually follow. They walk past him. And it is away from them, and the miners look for it and find it somewhere aside and wash and wash and wash.
And in Ryazan, they washed up such a spool as Nina Krasnova. It is impossible to compare her with any of the modern poets, because she is such a master and so masterfully owns different rhythms, different rhymes, different languages, that you are simply amazed! She borrows nothing from anyone. She, in my opinion, did not even read Dahl's dictionary. I'm kidding, of course. She is so original and peculiar that it is impossible to confuse her with anyone. Her rhyme is always some kind of unexpected, some kind of a revolutionary image.
Of course, the view of the poetry of Nina Krasnova may be different. Anyway. Yes. Permissible. And I love her melodiousness and nationality, coming from the depths of the soul.
I learned from Nina Krasnova's essay that she was friends with our amazing, great writer Viktor Astafiev. Her most interesting conversation with Viktor Petrovich was published in Yuri Kuvaldin's magazine Our Street. Nina flew to Krasnoyarsk, to Ovsyanka to see him, and there she interviewed him.
She often thinks of her mother. And so my mother, apparently, rewarded her from the Ryazan land, endowed her with some kind of birthright. I wanted to say - primitive, but this is nonsense, because Nina has both the Literary Institute and deep self-education behind her shoulders. And, of course, reading Krasnova's poems, her essays about poets, writers, Mandelstam, Tinyakov, Voloshin, Tyutchev, Balmont and others, you understand that she is not a pound with raisins, but a raisin with a pound, because it is such a peculiar refraction of the linguistic field, which is possible only in her works.
I am simply proud that I am familiar with Nina Krasnova, that I have the honor to be in her retinue. And that I sometimes read her poems dedicated to me when she attends performances of the Taganka Theater, at Doctor Zhivago. I can open our secret with her. Nina embroidered several Zhivago scarves for me with colored thread. Because in this performance I have to worry, cry, wipe my tears. Well, and, I say that this has its own secret, although I almost revealed it, but, nevertheless, all the same. Nina is the finest soul, the finest lyricist. Although she has such, you know, quirks with a shoe, and so she sometimes hits with a rhyme, and sometimes she hits in such a way that even stand, even fall!
Nina's lines dedicated to her sister, "Farewell, sister, see you in hell..." cannot be read without tears...

Farewell, sister! See you in hell.
When - I do not know - and in what year,
It will be, it will be, yeah
In a coffin, like in an elevator, I will go down there.
I recognize you from the front and back
And then I'll get you out of hell
And I'll take you by the hand to God in paradise.
Farewell, sister! See you in hell.

It is impossible to read all this without tears, and besides, I must say that in all this there is no sentimentality, no tearing, and in general there is no such thing in Nina's poems.
What distinguishes a real artist from a non-artist? Nina Krasnova's art is higher than personal. We sometimes confuse the art of the artist and something else. And she has such a gift, and, by the way, please note that Vladimir Vysotsky also had it, her gift is such that it is above vanity, above our fuss.
I am quite often asked: but in our time, what kind of songs would Vysotsky sing. It is hard to imagine that he would sing, but he certainly would not condemn our rulers. Vysotsky did not have this. Just as Nina Krasnova does not have this either. This is not easy on her part: I avoid, so to speak, the political situation, the political topic. It doesn't matter, it's something else. It's just that Nina's gift is beyond that. In this sense, I simply bow before her.
Well, Yesenin - yes. She is from the homeland of Sergei Yesenin. But this, you know, they say to me: here is Shukshin. He is from Altai. And I am from Altai. Some people call me the tail of Shukshin's comet. This is from a misunderstanding of the nature of talent. Because, firstly, when Vasily Shukshin appeared, I didn’t read it then. I am on my own. And Nina Krasnova herself. By the way, Nina Krasnova also has poems that they tell her that you will not grow up to Yesenin, and she hides somewhere behind a barrel and reads his book.
What does Yesenin have to do with it? Yesenin is Ryazan. So what? Think geographic coincidence. Yes, Yesenin, of course, is a genius. So what? Well, Altai, yes, this is Shukshin. So what? Why am I writing this? I am writing this to the fact that when Nina Krasnova was conceived by her parents, it is unlikely that they read Sergei Yesenin at that time. That is, Yesenin has nothing to do with it. Because genetically a poet in Russia is born miraculously, you will never understand where it came from.
They say she composes ditties! But this is not the main thing for her, although she grew out of folklore, as our literature grew out of Gogol's "Overcoat". It happens that you go on stage at a meeting with the audience, and they say to me: “Valery Sergeevich! Come on, sing“ Oh, frost, frost ... . "But I sing it. So is Krasnova. Sometimes, carried away by ditty popularity, she suddenly wraps something like that. But the phenomenon of Krasnova for me is not that she writes ditties. Here we can draw an analogy with Shukshin. Many represent Shukshin Kerzhachs are Shukshin's characters, but not Shukshin himself. So are ditties and heroes of Krasnova's ditties. These are Krasnova's characters, but not Krasnova herself.
Nina Krasnova is quite smart and intelligent and educated, but although she sometimes plays along with the public under the heroines of her ditties, like me, sometimes, not without pleasure, I play along and play along with the peasant. These are the costs of our production. What is good about Krasnov's road? She never imitates anyone, including Yesenin.
Why is Krasnova dear to me? Now, if there are unmercenaries in Russia, then the poetess Nina Krasnova belongs to them. I sometimes say to her: "Nina, well, let me give you 20 - 30 thousand for your anniversary." And she: "No, no, no! Don't, Valery, don't, no, no, no!"
We sometimes make such a deal with her, you know, I say: "Nina, I'm leaving in three days for the holiday of Peter and Fevronia. Nina, write a poem about Peter and Fevronia." She perceives this as a government order and writes, but writes in such a way that no one can write like she does, for example:

Above them fly not black flocks of crows,
And bright angels with a sparkle of heaven in their eyes.
Let's bow to the two miracle workers - Peter and Fevronia!
Let's glorify earthly love and the family hearth!

She is joking, and I am joking: she "received a government order from Zolotukhin," who desperately needed some exact word about Peter and Fevronia like this, desperately. In this, you know, someone can reproach me for being incomparable, or something, one with the other. But here, let's say, Alexander Pushkin is sitting and writing to "Slanderers of Russia", because the sovereign asked him to write about the events in Poland. And Pushkin wrote a poem that we still can't figure out. Lev Anninsky suddenly asked me: "Why did Alexander Sergeevich write down Lithuania in Slavic women?" Me: "Yes, I don't know, Pushkin knows better."
Pushkin knows better. So Krasnova knows better. Because there are so many legends about Peter and Fevronia, and suddenly such an amazing poem, from my point of view, is not an ode, but is perceived enthusiastically by literally everyone. When we opened the monument to Peter and Fevronia in Arkhangelsk, the children froze at the lines of this poem, it is written so simply, so expressively from the point of view of simple poetry.
I don't know which of the modern poets I can apply to with a state order. I think that, God forgive me, to no one but Nina Krasnova.
I repeat once again, I am proud to know the poetess Nina Krasnova. I love her discussions about Anna Akhmatova and Osip Mandelstam, about the forgotten but brilliant Alexander Tinyakov (Lonely) and Fyodor Kryukov. In her reasoning, she sometimes, like the sea during a storm, can overflow, but that's why she is a poetess!
Without the poetry of Nina Krasnova, it is impossible to imagine Russian literature of the 20th and 11th centuries.

Creation

This is an independent, deep poet. She brought into Russian poetry her Ryazan-Meshchera vocabulary, incredible openness, lyricism on the verge of a foul. And at the same time - unheard of purity. Nina Krasnova got an amazing gift. Expressing itself, it expresses the ethnos. This is extremely rare..

My motto: "Sing like a frog, even like a frog!" Poetry is the beauty and harmony of the world around us and the inner world of a person, embodied in the Word, in verses, and affecting our senses, and giving us aesthetic pleasure, and evoking in us high, noble impulses and aspirations. For me, poetry is also a kind of second reality in which I soar with my soul in search of my artistic means of self-expression. The first poet who influenced me during my school years was my great countryman Sergei Yesenin. Then the poets of the 19th century - Tyutchev, Lermontov, Pushkin, Griboedov, Baratynsky, Krylov, Nekrasov, Koltsov, then Mayakovsky, then Blok, the poets of the sixties, Rozhdestvensky, Yevtushenko, Voznesensky, as well as Soloukhin, Gamzatov, Silva Kaputikyan, Yulia Drunina. In my student literary institute time, the poets of the Silver Age Balmont, Gumilyov, Akhmatova, Tsvetaeva, Severyanin, Mandelstam, foreign poets Heine, Beranger, Burns, Whitman, Verlaine, Rimbaud, Baudelaire, Villon, later all my older brothers and sisters in pen with whom fate brought me to
the great literary road and who helped me walk along it - Starshinov, Dementiev, Bokov, Tarkovsky, Zhirmunskaya, Kovalzhdi, Yuri Kuznetsov, Kazakova and many others. And the poets of my generation, and then of the younger one. My motto is "Sing your own way, even like a frog!" and "Don't fall under someone's influence, like under a tram", from which the Literary Institute head of the creative seminar Yevgeny Dolmatovsky warned us, his seminarians, from whom I studied and who also had his (not pernicious) influence on me.


Nina Krasnova

When the last hour of nature strikes...
Fedor Tyutchev


When people are punished for their sins,
God will arrange the "last Cataclysm",
They will not be saved, who have reached the edge of everyone,
Neither Orthodoxy nor Catholicism...
But this is how people are punished out of a sense of revenge
For their sins? - He can't.
Religion will perish with them,
And no one will need God.


Sow reasonable, good, eternal...
Nikolai Nekrasov


Under the hymns of the nightingale
Don't be lazy.
Everyone has their own
Unplowed field.
Remember this motto:
The Lord is with you, with us!
Sow your plot
With my seeds
And here everywhere, and here,
Not waiting for your weather.
And the seeds will sprout
Will give such shoots.
peasant labor
Do not be afraid. Like Yesenin!
And maybe then
Your work will be appreciated.
Don't mind fate
Leaving in the shadow, in the darkness:
Your glorious harvest
Your descendants will reap.


Nineteenth century, iron,
Truly a cruel age!
Alexander Blok


In Russia, which centuries are not cruel?
The twentieth is especially terrible, cruel:
He destroyed the origins of past cultures
And gave a pole to climb high
To the coming boor who is from paradise
What did you do? And, not seeing God point-blank
And all not like themselves - despising,
Holy icons thrown under the ax
And he threw the classics of the past into the river.
Spiritual poverty came to power.
But the twenty-first century of the twentieth century
Present, present bills for this,
He is not forgiving brain dullness
Folk, without reducing everything to the individual,
Punish him for his crimes.
And everything will return to normal.

Akhmatova


I'm not beautiful anymore...
...I'm not young.
Anna Akhmatova


Porcelain idol, Akhmatova Anna,
You used to be proud of yourself.
What are you not beautiful? Weird.
You are beautiful despite your age.
I rhyme in the light of writing a cross,
Your hair is not counting gray hair.
You will be beautiful even in old age,
More beautiful than their young rivals.

Delmas in Chess

The artist Delmas danced in the estate.
For whom, for whom did you dance - for the masses?
Not for the masses - she danced for Blok
And I almost broke my heel, by the window
Pa making Carmen,
Having made carmine sponges with a bow.
And the heart of Delmas was beating under the blouse,
For the poet it pounded - not for the masses,
And black blood boiled under the skin.
And the poet's love grew like carrots,
Like a tulip, like a reed by the bridge,
And mystic poetry thickened...

Monument to Griboyedov near the metro station "Chistye Prudy"

Russia without betraying or selling
And without drinking and not blowing through the cards,
It stands in Moscow at Chistye Ponds,
I threw off my worries, a hundred pounds,
And looks at passers-by from the pedestal,
Witness of all their dates and meetings,
And knowing the importance of every moment,
It absorbs their language and speech.
Did Griboyedov like to eat mushrooms?
Have you tried Sauvignon in your life?
And did he carry coffins on himself
One's friends? He's not famous for that.
He sends an air greeting to Tehran,
Where did he work as an ambassador
And I did not earn a wound from a tiger
And many wounds. And died. But saved
Its for new, future times,
Fortune was saved by a faithful hand.
And not all of him died. Among the names
Illustrious people entered the ages.
He looks at the mass-printing kiosks
For book spines and bindings:
"What books should I read?" -
He hasn't read for two hundred years.
He could write poetry - volumes!
And he wrote one not thick volume,
One poem - "Woe from Wit".
She's about that grief from the mind
Anyone with talent and intelligence.

Monument of Merkurov to Dostoevsky on the former Bozhedomka


Igor Volgin


In the courtyard of the hospital of the former Mariinsky
He, conceived in the womb,
In the center of the flower bed grew in the form of a sculpture,
Russian genius of world culture.
The eternal convict of the pen, great prose,
In a timid pose, he stands without any pose.
There is something humble, humble,
There's something unsettling about him, too.
And there is humiliated and offended,
And badly scraped off from the dirt of life,
There is something holy and vicious in it,
And so tragic and prophetic,
And such an astonished Ozirayan:
What kind of heavenly place is this?
Himself for the crimes of mankind
Punished, the son of a crazy Fatherland.
Gently folded his hands on his chest
And God's mercy deserving,
He is more pitiful than the sacrifice of Karabakh,
And a strait shirt on him.

Parents day


In memory of my mother


You came to me for Parents' Day,
Fulfilling the maternal duty of guardianship.
You came to me at the Forest School
And I was pleasantly surprised by this.
We walked in the shade under the tree, aspen,
Woodpeckers flocked to look at you from a branch.
You were easily tied with a scarf -
Summer, motley, joyful colors.
You were all forest, you were mischievous,
In a light dress with elasticated sleeves,
And me with delicious strawberries, market
Served from a painted basket.
I seem to you from the heavens of the Most High point? ..
I wave my hand to you and die ...
I was your little daughter
I was and remain yours - her.
I came to you, look, I came to Solotcha,
To your grave, to the edge of the forest, to Lesotcha,
I came to you for Parent's Day,
Funeral, remembrance, sobbing.

Girl in shorts


We will all die someday...
Tatyana Krasnova


On Maslovka, a girl in shorts walks modelly,
Levels his posture and gait and step.
Earrings made of tin hang and shine like a medal,
They hang and shine in this girl's ears.
And the janitor jumps along Maslovka, scares the cats
And he waves a broom and yells stupidly at cats.
And the girl-divine walks so proudly,
Like she'll never, ever die.

You and I

At this commercial tent -
Two lucky people (patch patches on jeans) -
We eat pineapple with you.
God smiles upon us.
I am white, you are swarthy.
I am a cutie, you are a cutie.
We are such an enviable couple
Two such gifts for each other.

I recently went to Ryazan.
I have business in Ryazan:
See your dearest family
(I'm always happy for a day like this)
Children's world gone to visit -
And dedicate a joke to him.
And do not let someone boo you,
And stand next to Yesenin's granite
One plaque of honor
Drowning your longing in Coca-Cola.
And not thinking to annoy someone there,
Build a monument to yourself
His own, miraculous, all from books,
My own, from all my unreleased books
(I don't know how about them).
I recently went to Ryazan.
I have business in Ryazan.
