let's go, and i think that the situation in bilateral relations now is much worse than it was in the seventies, eighties, there at, as we say, the peak of the cold war, it is more reminiscent of, you know, more like the middle, there at the end of the fifties, when the americans had all these plans, there unthinkable, there the bombing of the soviet union and so on, that is, nothing good.

according to the polls, he is already overtaking trump. it is absolutely obvious that in america they have staged some kind of universal performance, and we are just like viewers, not us, but billions of people are watching all this, it is still unknown what

surprises there may be, what can be expected in those layouts that are circulating in the press, what is not there, to the point that biden can literally abdicate somewhere there in october and the vice president willy-nilly will become acting before the elections, well , it is difficult for me to judge how possible this is at all, but this is only one of the options, that is, it is quite obvious that many surprises await us, but the final result is really both worse, well...

a large and powerful country, so that it would be reasonable to allow this, but on the other hand, precisely because america is such a large country, but it would not just be naive, it would be dangerous to expect any noticeable, significant improvement in russian-american relations in a situation where the establishment is still inclined, well, in favor of russophobia and hehumanism. i do not think that

positive turns of events are impossible, you just said this, senator, but we must proceed from the fact that bad, unfortunately, can become even worse. it was a big game, we'll meet tomorrow on air. hello everyone, on air on channel one , the podcast everyone wants to fly, i'm its host, leonid yakubovich. we want to remember the planes on which the pilots of the country's air force forged a great victory. speaking about the planes of the great patriotic war, we cannot help but say that we have prepared this program for the day.

of the russian air force, this is always the best that the country's aircraft industry can give, by the way, any country, of course, these planes are at the peak of science and technology. as then, so modern day, naturally, we will talk about the planes of the great patriotic war. alexander yakovlev, an outstanding aircraft designer, this is known, by the way, was considered stalin's favorite. he was the head of a separate design bureau, among other things, he was a statesman, from the fortieth year he held the post of deputy of the people's commissariat of aviation industry for new technology from the 30th. fourth year, the okb aircraft were continuously in large-scale production and were constantly in operation. a total of 70,000 yak aircraft were built, of which more than 40,000 of them during the war. 2/3 of all

fighters were yakovlev aircraft. now let's touch on some. yak-1, it was the first combat aircraft developed by the yakovlev design bureau. serial production began in 1940. there is a legend that the aircraft was personally ordered by supreme commander-in-chief stalin. although this is not entirely true. there was simply a meeting at which several promising types of aircraft were considered. stalin drew attention to the yakovlev aircraft. in total, about 9,000 copies of all modifications were produced. aircraft was built, well, if you're interested. according to the scheme of a free-carrying single-engine monoplane with a dural fabric fuselage, that is , the plane was made of duralumin, some parts, everything else was covered with percale - on a steel frame, the engine in the basic configuration m105p, it was designed by

vladimir klimov, the engine power was about 1.00 horsepower, the crew of the aircraft was one person, the maximum speed was 500, 70 km / h, the maximum range was 540 km. according to the pilot's reviews, the machine had very good horizontal maneuverability, was controlled, stable in the air and in its characteristics, surpassed, as pilots say, the main german fighter of the beginning of the war, the very famous messar schmidt bf-109e. almost forty pilots, who, by the way, fought on this plane. on the ya1. during the war , he was awarded the title hero of the soviet union. but you know these names, these are pokryshkin, gulyaev, meresyev and lidiya litvyak. yakovlev also had an amazing design idea, constantly improving

existing aircraft models, and constantly inventing new ones. in 1942, modification of the yak-1 and yak-7, a new one appeared, it was the yak-9 aircraft. here. in front of you is a wonderful machine, as the pilots said, the most mass-produced fighter of the great patriotic war, in the middle of the forty-fourth year , the yak-9 aircraft in all modifications were produced in total more than all the aircraft combined, they replaced the yak-1 and yak-7b - on the main fronts, and the yak-9 at the plant, now i will tell you number 150. 3 reached, it is difficult to imagine, 20 aircraft per day, an absolutely unrealistic figure by today's parameters, the characteristics can be to say, means one pilot, maximum speed of about 600 km/h, ceiling

of about 875 km. yak 9 was very similar in appearance to yag 7, but technically it was more advanced, the design used. and not wood and percale, which significantly reduced the weight of the structure, and the gain was used either to increase the fuel supply, or to equip the aircraft with powerful weapons and more diverse special equipment. what are the main features of the yak-9? this is its ability to be modified into a wide variety of purposes for combat application types. well, for example, a frontline fighter. with conventional and heavy weapons, a long-range escort fighter , a fighter bomber. the yak 9 was very maneuverable, as pilots say, a very light direction, had a significant advantage in the air over enemy fighters, as we said, for example, over

mesa shmit. another outstanding model of wartime fighters was designed by semyon alekseevich lavachkin, also an amazing aircraft design. people's commissariat of heavy industry, where he was the coordinator deployment of new aircraft factories. in parallel, labochkin together with vladimir gorbunov and mikhail gudkov, by the way, the aircraft was called lak gg, precisely because lavochkin, gorbunov, gutkov. they developed a project for this very aircraft, which was called lag, and submitted it to a competition in the government of the soviet union. this. was in the thirty- ninth year, then the prototype of the future yak-1 was prepared, and alexander

yakovlev, they competed with each other. in the fortieth year, lavochkin was appointed chief designer of the design bureau of aircraft plant 21 in the city gorky, and now, as you know, nizhny novgorod, where the production of these very fighters was launched. lavochkin was very fond of revolutionary approaches. he used wood for the construction of aircraft as a material for fighters, but this was for third-generation fighters, the third modification, and used it in all subsequent series of this aircraft. the structure of the material resembled plywood, but it was much stronger, it was specially processed, there was a special adhesive base, the disadvantage of the gg lag, as pilots say, was the speed of not very high in relation to the speeds of enemy aircraft and thrust-armed. the pilots complained about this, and this aircraft began to yield to the enemy in combat, so

in 1942, the modification of the board began, the threat of closure loomed at the bottom of the fighter, in 1942, the soviet government, in general, gave preference, of course, i by the seventh, the production of which had already been established at full capacity, a new engine was needed, and not water-cooled, air-cooled, which ... is always more promising, members of the design bureau, it was necessary in the shortest possible time, without drawings, to come up with something new, they created a prototype fighter without drawings, it was march 21 , 1942, test pilot vasily mishchenko lifted the future la-5 into the air, the first la-5 aircraft entered the army in the second half of 1942, by the end of the war they had manufactured 100, about 130 fighters, in total, about 10 thousand of these

same la5 aircraft were produced. the aircraft was controlled by one person, the speed was quite decent 613 km/h, the range was almost 500 km. the engine, naturally, as i said, air-cooled more reliable than liquid-cooled engine, had greater survivability in combat, bullet fragmentation penetrations. you understand, but did not disable the cooling system, by the way, at the same time were, well , and a kind of protection for the pilot from fire, therefore, using all these properties, pilots rushed into battle, realizing that the plane would not fail. in the process of serial production of the aircraft, it was continuously modernized, already in the forty-third year an improved version began to enter service with the red army air forces, it was called ... 5f with a forced engine m82f,

compared to mersmit, the fighter received an advantage in speed and was much more maneuverable, this was confirmed by all the pilots who flew it. at the end of the forty-third year, the improved fighter la5fn, which received the designation la7, took to the sky, became the best aerodynamics of the aircraft. almost 100 kg was less weight, which allowed to strengthen the armament, installed a third twenty-millimeter cannon shvag or b-20. launched into serial production la-7 - in the last year of the war became one of the main frontline fighters and, perhaps, one can say, one of the best aircraft of the second world war. here is lavochkin's aircraft, they are all about the same, la-7, la-9, it was an incredibly flying airplane, maneuverable, easy to control, pilots loved it very much, on the air

of the first channel podcast everyone wants to fly, we continue, i am its host leonid yakubovich, speaking about fighters, naturally, we cannot help but tell about another unique machine, this is the third moment, here it is, the light machine owes its appearance to the tandem of two... aircraft designers, these are artem mikayan and mikhail gurevich, both outstanding, of course, thinkers who worked in the aviation industry, they came from the okb. nikolai polikarpov, both of whom were deservedly called the king of fighters. in the thirty-ninth year, they were given the polikarpov i-200 for revision, it was planned as a mass fighter with a speed of over 600 km / h, which at that time was simply an enormous speed. that is, the first high-speed fighter of the soviet

union, so it received a new powerful engine am35, which gave it character. the pilot's cockpit, here it is in front of you, when the aircraft was improved, it became known as the mig-1. the main complaints of all military pilots, including the host countries, turned out to be the range of the aircraft, although by the end of may 1940 it was launched into serial production, the leadership of the air force demanded that the aircraft be made longer-range. the only way to increase the range of the mig-1 was to install an additional fuel tank on it. as a result , the modernized mig-1, which made first flight on october 29, 1940, already in december of the same year it received the big-3 index, completely replaced its ancestor in this series it was produced at the number one aviation plant.

what else can i say, the plane was used in the first days of the war and despite. the complexity of mastering in units, the machine in general, one can say, took root, the pilots got used to it, highly appreciated the characteristic speed qualities, fighter maneuverability, gradually eliminated shortcomings, defects, the aircraft's armament was strengthened, to two shkaz machine guns of 7.62 caliber and one large-caliber bs of caliber 12.7 were supplemented with large-caliber bk, which were installed under the wings. they were visible here, here under the wings they installed two more machine guns. during the first battles, the main drawback of the mi3 was especially clearly manifested - the lack of armored glass in the cockpit cap. well, naturally, the losses were quite large, the pilot received serious wounds to the head and chest. well, in general, the mig-3

gradually began to be used as an attack aircraft and a dive bomber. brode glass was installed a little later, this greatly increased, of course, flight safety, its maximum flight altitude was quite high, 12 thousand meters, while maintaining a very high speed, about 640 km / h. nevertheless, at the very end of the forty-first year, the production of aircraft on the topic or ... found a high ceiling and speed at altitudes were used as a high-altitude night fighter in the air defense system, where its decisive. well, what else can i say, it was mainly used until the end of the war, in particular, protecting moscow. now, i think it is more correct

it would be, of course, to remember the bombers. among these machines of ours, ... there are legends, one of them was created by andrei nikolaevich tupolev, one of the outstanding aircraft designers, about whom we will of course tell separately. he was already considered a famous designer, behind whom were several highly successful aircraft of the tb and ant series, which were actively used during the war. well, let's say, the tb3 was the world's first four-engine, free-carrying. bomber with an engine installed in a row along the span in the wing leading edge. this scheme became dominant for all aircraft of this type. these were aircraft of different purposes. another outstanding development of tupolev in the thirties ant-40 sb, high-speed frontline bomber, generally

svb. the most mass-produced aircraft developed by the tupolev design bureau. speed. nt-40 was one and a half times faster than the serial tb-3 bombers, and nt-40 had smooth skin, the maximum speed exceeded 420 km/h, higher than that of foreign aircraft of the same class. but this is a well-known story, in the thirty-seventh year tupolev was arrested on a false charge of sabotage. he was imprisoned, worked in tskb-29, nkvd, where she was. one of the four chief designers, by the way, i saw this sharashka on radio street, it still exists, i think, if you go along radio street, there is an extreme right turn, and such a semicircular building. upstairs in the glass dome they worked. this whole story was known as the tupolev sharaga. in prison, tupolev created the tu-2 aircraft, known as

the nt-58 aircraft 103. twin-engine, high-speed, daytime, frontline bomber. the machines are legendary. many experts call it the best bomber in the war area. according to their data. of course, it was superior to all soviet aircraft of this kind that participated in the war. it took bombs of a larger caliber, was more reliable and easier to control. the plane was controlled by four people, two pilots , a flight technician, a flight engineer, sometimes another person was added who was responsible for bombing. the speed was quite usual, 520 km / h. and it flew at a distance of 2.0 versts, this is very ... large at that time distance, the tu-2 could normally carry one ton of bombs, but it was possible to take 3 tons by reducing the flight range.

however, the plane was initially crude, but this is known, it had problems with low reliability, especially the engine, therefore, despite the high assessment of the pilots, after military tests in 1942, it failed for almost 2 years, the plane began to enter the army en masse only in 1944. already after modifications, the plane was especially effective in supporting ground forces. on the very first day of the battles for berlin, 54 tu-2 dropped 97 tons of bombs on the enemy, that's a lot. the plane bombed berlin until it fell. tupolev was released early in july of 1941 and after the war he created many more outstanding planes. it should be said that this is also known together with tuplev. another outstanding designer, vladimir petlyakov, worked in sharaga. in the twenties and thirties, he was responsible for the wings of all tb and ant planes. and during

his imprisonment, vladimir mikhailovich was tasked with creating a new plane based on the twin-engine high fighter 100. it was called vi100. high-altitude fighter 100. well, it's hard to even imagine in today's times. the task was given 50. 2 days, how petlyakov managed to complete it in this time frame is already impossible to imagine, but nevertheless, in december of the 40th year, serial production of a new bomber called pedba, pawn, began. the plane was controlled by three people, the speed was 540 km / h, the range was approximately 1,200 km, the bomb load was 100 kg. pilot navigator. slightly behind the pilot, slightly to the right and a gunner, enjoyed incredible popularity among pilots, according to memoirs it was, of course

, the best among machines of this type. i am acquainted, thank god, with an outstanding woman brok beltsova, who, in my opinion, thank god, is still alive, she flew as a navigator on the tpe-2, in such admiring... told about this plane, my heart was simply taken away, all participants in the creation of the pe-2 were released in 1940, and petlyakov received the stalin prize of the first degree, such were the times, the design of the p-2 according to nicknamed peshechka, turned out to be very successful, which allowed 22 modifications of the bomber to be created during the war, the aircraft was used for reconnaissance purposes, and there was a special modification p2r, it did not have bombing equipment, but on board was the first serial soviet aviation radar,

it was called gneiss-2. on the peshechka, for the first time in the armed forces of the soviet union , the electrical control scheme was used for many mechanisms. in the design of the aircraft, for example, about 50 electric motors for five different types were used. p-2 in war years. was not only the most mass- produced dive bomber, but also the most numerous bomber in the soviet armed forces. in total , 11,247, in my opinion, of all modifications were assembled in 5 years. in addition to the main bomber version, there was also a version in the guise of a heavy fighter, a night fighter, an interceptor fighter, a reconnaissance aircraft, a heavy attack aircraft, a training aircraft, and even an aircraft with a jet engine. on the production

model, the pilot's cabin was shifted slightly forward, behind the pilot's seat, slightly to the right the navigator's place was located. the navigator could also fire the rear-firing shkaz machine gun, which was mounted on a pivot mount. behind the trailing edge of the aircraft's wing was the radioman's place, who controlled the under-fuselage shas dagger mount. here. the integrity of the pe2 dive bombers was their high- speed maneuverability, maneuverability, and incredible survivability, while the pe2s, especially those freed from their bomb load, could accept combat or avoid interception, they were especially effective after the thirteenth series, which received into service, large-caliber machine guns of 12.7 mm caliber, in the new season on the first, come on, come on, well

, can i ask you something hotter? that i have loved her for a long time, i have loved her since school. your hair on the back of your head is wet from the heart, there is lipstick on your collar, for everyone we are an ideal couple, i do not want to be a thief, you understand, yes, but it seems to me that you yourself, yes, my wife asked me, left for another, why don't you go after her, don't fight, don't bring her back, i went out of my way for him, do you at least know how much they cost, you were not asked,

premiere of a multi-part film, soon on the first, we continue the podcast, everyone wants to fly on the first channel, i am its host leonid yakubovich, today a story about great aircraft designers, those who created amazing, outstanding. the best planes in the world. tupalev's student was the outstanding aircraft designer pavel osipovich sukhoi. tupolev supervised sukhoi's diploma work entitled single-seat fighter with a 300 horsepower engine. by that time, it should be said that the novice designer was already 30 years old, but he graduated from the technical school so late school, not because he was lazy, but because

he had to. he had to interrupt his studies for 6 years because of the civil war and the need to feed his family, as many people did, by the way, an extraordinary talent, amazing efficiency and completely extraordinary thinking, everyone says this, he very quickly became tupolev's right hand in this capacity , he was involved in the creation of the i-4, i-14 and , naturally, the an-25 fighter. the turning point in sukhoi's life was the thirty-sixth year, when among the leading design bureaus of the country was a competition was announced to create a short-range bomber under the code name ivanov. according to the competition task, the teams were ordered to design and build an aircraft with an m-25 engine and bring the whole thing to state tests no later

than 1937. the dry stock, which represented tsagi, laid down the deadline, its machine first took to the air in august of 1937, the chief pilot of tsagi, pilot mikhail gromov, sat behind the swivel of the aircraft, which by that time was called the sz1 index, that is, stalin's task number one, who worked for a very long time in tsag, judging by what he wrote, then he... valued the aircraft very highly, thanks to the victory in the competition, sukhoi immediately had his own design bureau and the first aircraft. this very modified ivanov received the name su-2 for the first time 16 serial bombers bb-1 were transferred to the disposal of the short-range bomber regiment, if i'm not mistaken, number 135. and all this was in may 1940. the development of the machines, it must

be said, went quite quickly, but thanks to the close attention of the government, except all other things, the machine was easy to operate, very stable, the pilot. noted a very good view forward from the cockpit, convenient m location of the control handle, they said that the plane was easy to operate, it was very convenient for technicians to service it, since they had similar access to all units, and therefore repairing the plane, replacing engines even in difficult conditions did not present any particular difficulty, at the beginning of the war , soviet pilots were armed with a little more than ... 400 su-2 aircraft, an excellent machine in peacetime, in war conditions, it, unfortunately, began to yield to the technically more prepared machines of the rival, the enemy, that is, the fascist aircraft were superior to

the sukhoi in speed and maneuverability, the aircraft could no longer perform the tasks that were originally set before it, it gave way to other bombers, but by this time ... the sukhoi design bureau developed a new aircraft, it was called the su-6 fortified attack aircraft, the design drawings of this machine appeared, it must be said, back in the thirty- ninth year, and the first two aircraft were built in 1941, and already at the beginning of 1942 they were transferred for testing, both prototypes were single-seat armored low-wing aircraft, mixed construction, wing... center section, empennage and frame of the rudders of the ilerons were metal, the rear part of the physique was wooden with plywood sheathing, the pilot's cabin and fuel tanks were armored, the small arms and cannon armament

of the su-6 attack aircraft consisted of two шказ machine guns of 7.62 caliber and two cannons of 23 mm caliber, cannons vya, and they were carried in the internal compartments, but already during the tests of the su-6 showed an amazing speed of more than 490 km/h, almost 500, it was higher than the best attack aircraft of the war il-2, we will talk about it a little later, such... was achieved mainly due to the use of a new powerful engine m-71. it was lighter in flight weight and even smaller in size. the dry armor was also significantly

more advanced than that of the il-2. among other things, due to a more rational distribution of sheet thicknesses, the total armor weight was only about 690 kg. this is approximately 18.5% of the empty weight aircraft, this is a very good result. the su-6, having excellent maneuverability and speed indicators, could be successfully used to combat enemy bombers and transport aircraft. this is known, a lot has been written about it. for the creation of the su-6 attack aircraft, sukhoi was awarded the first degree state prize in 1943, the aircraft was recommended for production, that is, it went into production, however, unfortunately, for various reasons, it was not possible to establish mass production of the m-72 engine, at the beginning of 1944 year one of the experimental attack aircraft was

re-equipped with a water -cooled engine am-42, approximately 2,000 horsepower, with an air-cooled engine m-82 with a capacity of 1,700 horsepower. sukhoi showed higher performance during tests than the il-2, but not as significant as with this m-71f engine, sukhoi himself considered the installation of the m-42 engine, of course, a step backwards, which he repeatedly stated and which he repeatedly wrote about. nevertheless, such an aircraft was built due to unreliable operation of the engine installation, the tests were delayed by the time they were finished in serial... production, it was not this plane that was released, but the il-10 attack aircraft with a similar engine, and the relevance of the dryer was lost. in 1944, the aircraft was taken out of production. this, of course, was a heavy blow

for the aircraft designer. nevertheless, the dryer continued to work, and what it did next, of course, is simply an outstanding result. now a few words about the aircraft, which... i want to talk about separately, this is an attack aircraft, if a fighter is a means of destroying enemy air targets, then an attack aircraft is necessary to provide support to ground troops. and, perhaps, the main attack aircraft of the great patriotic war was the il-2. it was, i repeat, the most mass-produced aircraft in the history of aviation. 36 thousand of them were produced. they called it a flying tank. the creator of the aircraft sergei vladimirovich ilyushin, the holder of a record seven stalin prizes. at the very beginning of the war, the aircraft was produced only with a pilot, there was no gunner-radio operator. this, naturally, led to very. large losses, ilyushin spoke out sharply at all

meetings, but for some reason the military were against it, and stalin supported the modification of the machine with one pilot. time passed, the losses were very high and we must give credit to the supreme. he admitted his mistake, he called ilyushin to him and asked him to start producing machines with a rodist shooter as soon as possible. this was released quite quickly. and of course, this had a huge impact on the combat capability of the machine, here it must be said that the dynamics of the production of machines was such that there was no time to armor the shooter's cabin, the shooter's glazing, the shooter flew in general, it was practically defenseless, except for the machine gun itself, it had nothing, but nevertheless, the il-2 became a real... front-line soldier, especially scary, in experienced

hands. as of june 22, 1941 , 249 machines were produced, 50 were in active units, another 50 were only supposed to arrive in their regiments, but despite the small number, the first il-2 flights were made on june 25, when our pilots had already completely mastered the tactics of conducting combat, and this was a tactic called all-reason. all at once, the germans suffered huge losses, the machine was feared very, well, imagine 12 machines, even a little more, simultaneously dropped all the ammunition, shot at the enemy position, there was practically no chance for anyone to survive on the ground, pilots, attack aircraft were especially successful in fighting large concentrations of equipment, tanks, armored vehicles and so on, artillery, warehouses, railway junctions, over the years... the war , 365 attack aviation regiments

of all stages of readiness were formed, out of more than 35,000 attack aircraft built, this is now a world record. of course, during our broadcast, we not all the planes of the great patriotic war were told, the first channel plans to tell about all the great aircraft designers of our country. it should be said that not only aircraft manufacturing, but also a lot of science and technology, of course, sharply leaped forward during the great patriotic war, this is natural, because everything was focused on the result, and the planes that were produced at that time, of course, surpassed everything that was done before the war, i repeat, science, technology made it possible to make planes.

and here i should mention another wonderful event. the central museum of the air force of the country, as part of the papa-mama-ya, aviation family competition, organized a children's drawing competition. and we, together with the central museum, call on you all to take part in this. competition of all, dad, mom of all children,

the competition is wonderful, we are waiting for your drawings, the podcast everyone wants to fly was on air on channel one, and i, its host, leonid yakubovich, hello, i... dmitry bak, right here we have another episode of the literary podcast, let them not talk, let them read, we are talking about very different writers, about classics. about our contemporaries, but today we are talking about a person who passed away quite a long time ago, but his prose, his stories, his larger works are still very relevant, they are still argued about, their names are remembered, these are, for example, stories like nervous people, like banya, many others, you

certainly guessed that we are talking about mikhail mikhailovich zvoshchenko, he would have turned 130 this year. august 9, about him today we will talk with vera mikhailovna zoshchenko, great-granddaughter of mikhail mikhailovich, actress, tv presenter. hello, vera mikhailovna. hello, and also with maria aleksanna kotova, head of the scientific and methodological department of the state moscow museum, mikhail afanovich bulgakov. hello, masha. let's be informal, as in life, that's how it is with us. well, let's talk about zoshchenko. let's start the conversation with this: well, zoshchenko flourished in the twenties, gained fame, gained popularity, was surrounded by legendary stories, his life, or rather, the twenties - this is such a turning point, is there anything special about mikhail mikhailovich against the background

of other russian writers of that time? all the time when i speak with students, i introduce this criterion: did the person manage to travel abroad before the revolution? is he studying abroad, or did the world military revolution overtake him already in his early youth, like it was with zoshchenko against the background of the same bulgakov or pelnyak or even ivanov, zoshchenko did not manage to travel abroad, like bulgakov, and it seems that zoshchenko, like bulgakov, was all life was a ban on leaving the country, and he never went anywhere, and the revolution for zovchenko, it seems to me, was a determining factor in his literary development, and he counted his literary path from 1921. although he wrote before that, and he wrote stories, some beautiful sketches in the spirit of artsebashev, nitchi, nitchi was his favorite philosopher, in general, in such a decadent vein, and the revolution completely changed the vector of his development, that is, we can say that there was zoshchenko before zoshchenko, he never published things before, he published them and did not talk about them at all, that is,

yes, he started as a writer, as if they didn't exist, he started to engage in literature in 1921, he wrote in his autobiographies, we and... we will return to 1921 more than once, because this was a turning point, of course, yes, indeed, some of the russian writers managed to fight on both sides, to participate in the civil war, but zoshchenko, straight from the wall of the law faculty of st. petersburg university, he found himself in the thick of things, and for him, in general, there was no particular choice, yes, he immediately accepted the revolution, yes, you can say so, or is it still too harsh? i think, if you compare with the same bulgakov, you can say. that zoshchenko accepted the revolution bulgakov for bulgakov it was the collapse of everything vladikavkaz well, in general, according to mikhail mikhailovich, if you believe his stories before sunrise his autobiographical things, mikhail mikhailovich rather even anticipated it, because in his youth you can see when he shakes hands with the schoolboys with the servants, he is reprimanded for this by the girl

who is attractive to him, this desire for some internal equality and dignity of all people, this is history. of course, you mentioned the story before and so on, here the question is more complicated, you are the sunrise, and we will talk about it a lot, but now let's talk about early zovchenko, let me ask you about what, in your family, what did they say about mikhail mikhailovich, what traditions?
