see now that my daily social is idealist i know i don't think that i think according to my own experience that sometimes if official i do all day even if there be no very good in the ideals of sun very gifted dreamers they are doomed to get killed one of the devoured because. because if something is you're forced to love something. it kills the so you think it's still possible to save those ideas from being killed . absolutely ideal socialism it's one of the best ideas in the world idea of christianity and many other ideals but something reality sorceries and was crippled because we were forced to laugh and even no one

step to the right to the left it was. the betrayal by our count and i think that evil talk about the future i think the celebration was really a little bit childishly but in the same time wisely predicted by sucker when he just used unfortunately he very. difficult for a thought all the ordinary people world community and say comparisons are of that but it's absolutely practical in the musical world idea to see everything do in the past some good features of the ideas so subtle is. everything the best the sorceress from the socialism

nine was. crimes of socialism against itself. this is some rich the result of sorry mistakes. and not repeat any kind of us so to learn we were all bitterest of i knew he who also got the. it's also not his norm in this crimes. in the past. nor because it was all done but son. of rick's ability and. very thing vance possibility to south arrival for them souls what if. that same retaliated because capitalism is based not on the wrong group. in america they're also the best because all of us all

a little even the best of us will really be to greece italy you have been thinking about it a lot because you're taught about it in many of your interviews so what do you think today what is the reason that poetry and the poets were extremely popular in russia in the days of communism even even before the socialist revolution under the oppressive governments there today. yes we'd never have come yeah how many is with you as the very last well get three but they were the iron curtain as though we were when we lived without an ideological official press . the leaving the poet's poetry is not as popular as it used to be worried you know it can so many things. destroyed unfortunately i am not

crying that we just. and our annual there is a saying that each official ideology is a killer kill thought ideals it kills ideas even in the reserves because if you are blessed to be one a protestant soul only can't really call on the mostly he you just. under is in need are the reasons it's it's a dangerous you know it's in this instance something destructive i think it's it doesn't mean within their communities and not a communist but i i could be but my mother thought of this what was a come when you think she was a very wonderful woman one woman on earth many some ideas result some brave communists who couldn't win a war so if i don't see my sin cuz a sucker was a very sober look at the ration of the three in here to collect everything like

freedom here again he used to shank a famous russian poet when we. created a museum and let's take a closer look at it all in a report by yelena the mirror from a legendary russian writer's village just outside moscow. here is the birthplace of some twentieth century russian way through most places like a worse poster next dr zhivago during soviet times the village of harry delkin the new mosque was home to some of the best writers of the pork these days people come here to get an idea of what inspired their favorite authors and he's a waste of them or about one of the most popular soviet and russian poets if the any of the shankar he has traveled a lot across russia and abroad reciting his poems and taking pictures almost three hundred three says look at you from the walls of his gallery to paul with himself leads us to his favorite works portraits he calls the faces of russia images of

siberian women are especially deal with a few people i was raised by these people just as i was raised by the russian which reclass ix they're the classics of human kindness and compassion berkeley i would want to be countries the lines from one of you have to shank those poems in his gallery there's a feeling he's been to almost all of them he might picasso and should growl among his friends were pioneers of surrealism like marx and andrew are nearer a poet says he was liking to have met so many talented people who generally gave their pictures to him this is one of the law speeches by george brock he painted it in his bag. when he could no longer raise from it and he sent his bird over to me. one of the rooms is russian or it one's immediately struck there by and looked so course powerful magnetic works which occupy one of the walls of the gallery this

outburst of color is called down by the tenderness of fantasy images by a pov of their artist alexander b.b.n. and this is one of us to show this fever it's a game or a single portrait of an old man who seems to be the history of rush hour police shoulders it's for the sake of simple people like this that you have to go preferred not to keep all his treasures to himself is museum is a gift to the people who are his major source of inspiration. this isn't a you welcomed which of there is strike when it started but why did you prefer a lot to enjoy the fruits of global shows perestroika and continue to live in the united states right now. i do this like people who dislike gullible show the doom the. world he saved. the world from

rob would be inevitable up a plot on the part of king king. of the more calls for our our friends but he was himself not prepared for the kid in our nose bleed over the events around him anyone thought he was not enough his size if in the moment it sometimes happens in. the sun not even involved in the during cold black eyes peeled. keep. only in the. rule. in his hands in his hair and that's it and. unfortunately for the but there is any way any way absolutely serve to soothe the wilful phenomena program much of it

while the why did you yourself prefer living in the united states there are more people like ruby i am not really understood russian citizens who live in have no. second american passport. my wife why hasn't because of the possible top flight to move very quickly short was like all americans during his regret but if he thought i was a solid citizen this is both very informal and they have to ask these are just insulted problem for many russian citizens even for one day i was floored when men who predicted that during world will be destroyed before. before the end of things and i was so publicly declared that it has to be destroyed even walter older called local grange about me i would prefer still fun for him here it's i know from course now from reserves himself itself what they could do with

this impulse i'm going to send him with a beer with his board. so you see but i can tell you one thing when he came to i was flying through me it was a known fly and who have them very difficult unsolved wheelin that was forced landing in hungary. and they gave me routes for one night the hotel was the worst in fifty meters of. it because i had a rash of buspar. the didn't carry me me from brooklyn me prefer the man i give a rip the jury has to be united and i was sleeping on the floor. we in russia he's a senior this is a very important if they want to deal with the russians they have to. give us

a rough over russian citizen two three. three three people who were all counted it's like oprah nigel's here teach you know states and there is a steer it up in russia also in europe that americans aren't really cultured people they don't read a lot the. intellectuals are isolated like can you confirm that and on and on the whole you know i i teach him. first of all i knew great americans i knew robert frost out of school miller i horsed. zahn standing in nairobi you know the. bill styron was on one frame really close or in john updike all of them the brain said well paul the only ones who thought of life and around the don't you yourself live in an ivory tower no no no no i love the because some russians and thirty million created by sun are russians

who are integrated going america they don't go to they don't read american books they don't go to american theater they don't learn properly. in this exactly they invented this vessel and cultural america aren't cultural marxists probably but it's a very very problem you think all french people because not. russians are culture not you know. you see in the our. our pupils. in the school they make more unorganized economists think than american too it's that the . seeing the display crowds will sometimes give promotion for i'm tickled i get and i just want you to to say yes this is a very important i had a discussion with my father and who is of your generation he said that a cultural person should know

a lot of poetry i said no and again today you can you can be a culture person without poetry so who's right me or my dad. i think you called your culture well for the most part is when you name a real understand beauty of poetry of beauty if he's old to understand beauty of poetry you food not understand those stories because all wrong skeet wrong skin are necessary and it is in easy image of fall for all his flaws it's a little a good way to go yet i give up i give out thank you and that was give you any of the shanker a famous russian poet and one of the legends one of the icons of the sixties that's it for now for all of us here spotlight will be back with more for the coming follow what's going on in and outside russia until then fail party and take care less if.
