nigerians socialists idealists they know i don't think that i think according to my own experience that sometimes if official i do all this even if there be no very good in the ideals of sun i'm going to give good bremer's z.-e. are doomed to be killed was be devoured course because if something is that you are forced to love something will kill things so so you think it's still possible to say those ideas being killed. absolutely ideal first goal is not so one of the best ideas in the world idea of. many other ideas but something reality or socialism was crippled because we were forced to love and even one step to the

right to the left it was characterized as a betrayal by our power and i think that evil talk about the future i think the third ration was really a little bit childishly but in this. same time wisely predicted by sahar when he just used unfortunately he used very. difficult for a so-called poll the american people world can really answer a comparison. with but it's absolutely practical in the musical world trade deal to save everything goof in the past some good features of the ideas of. everything the best the source is from the socialism and mindless. crimes of socialism against

itself. some simply this is some rich selling sorry serious mistakes. and not getting paid any kind of errors so to learn your own bitterest of i knew here who also kept the cover there isn't it's also not as known in this crimes the socialism in the past. nor because it was all done but some. ability and. very thing vance possibility to sort of arrival for a couple of them souls what if. that same with palin because capitalism is based not on wrong good pictures of the market also because all of us all

illegal even best of all if we are a little bit they graze even a year i've been thinking about it a lot because because you are you've talked 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 but today. yes we have come in yet how many is very well forgive me but today where there are a period when where where when we live without an ideological official press. the poet's poetry is not as popular as it used to be a word you know it depends of meaning things. destroyed unfortunately i am not crying we just. our annual draw is

a thing that each official ideology is a killer kills of ideals you kill for years even in the reserves because if you are blessed to be one a protestant soul only carluke or only mostly he you just. under is in need are the reasons it's its adventurous you know this isn't something destructive i think it's a dozen within them a communist and not a communist but i could be but my mother thought of this what was the one you think she was a very wonderful woman one ornament on many some ideals result some brave company some couldn't win a war so it i don't see why you think us a sucker of it was a very sober look at the ration of the history you hear to collect everything like

this song called freedom here gave me a gift to shank a famous russian poet by the way the official who created a museum and let's take a closer look at it a little in the report by yelena to me that are from a legendary russian writer village just outside moscow. he is the birthplace of some twentieth century russian literary masterpieces like word of the legs dr zhivago during soviet times the villager there they'll come when your moscow was home to some of the best writers or pork these days people come here to get an idea of what inspired their favorite authors and he is a place to learn more about one of the most popular soviet and russian poets after shankar he has traveled a lot across russia and abroad restating the stones and taking pictures almost three hundred faces look at you from the walls of his gallery pool with himself leads us to his favorite works portraits he calls the faces of russia images of say

beauty and women are especially deal with q. i was raised by these people just as i was raised by the russian literature classics they're the classics of human kindness and compassion. i would want to be born in all countries the lines from one of us to shands poems in his gallery there's a feeling he's been to almost all of them he met picasso and should well among his friends were pioneers of surrealism like marx bernstein and you are nearer the poet says he was not going to have not so many talented people who generally give their pictures to him but this is one of the last pictures by george brock he painted in his bed. and will no longer raise from it and he sent this bird over to me. one of the rooms is russian or it one's immediately struck there by so powerful magnetic works which occupy one of the walls of the gallery this outburst of color is school

down by the town's innocent fantasy images by a pov of their artist alexander b. bill and this is one of used to send his favorite series game a single portrait of an old man who seems to bear the easter e of rush hour police shoulders it's for the sake of simple people like this though you have to shank a preferred not to people he's treasures to himself he's a museum is a gift to the people who are his major source of inspiration. this isn't a you welcomed richard restrike when it started but why did you prefer not to enjoy the fruits of god which was perestroika and continue to live in the united states right now. i do these like people like gullible show they don't understand what he see. the world from

probably inevitable other cover through. he took off the mark i was taught over our heads but he was himself not prepared for the speed in our nose clean over the events around anyone until he was not enough his size if. it sometimes happens in. elizabeth i'm not even involved in the. us. only in the. rule. in his hands in history and that's it and unfortunately this happened but. anyway anyway absolutely sure that we will face a monument to god but of

a wild thing why did you yourself prefer living in new year's stay there are more people like ruby i am not really understood russian citizens live in have no. second american passport. i why why hasn't because it's impossible to fly to move very quickly short ribs like all americans the door is regrettable but if if i was a solid citizen of this but we got it in for one day i have to ask and these are images the problem for many russian citizens even for a while the i was forced men who predicted the building world will be destroyed before. before the end of things will and i was forced so publicly declared that it has to be destroyed even the old record will show complaints about me and what sort of people here it's i know from the horse's mouth will reserve him so he said what they can could do this is to surrender to

something three dear but he was bored and. so you see but i could tell you one thing when he came to i was flying through me it was a non-flying with a very difficult and solve the we when it was raining in hamburg. and they gave me welsh for sleep one night the hotel. was in fifth. it because i had a russian passport. and he didn't ever meet me do it to me the third man would you queer the jury has to be united and i was sleeping on the floor this is a think we in russia is a senior this is a very important if we want to deal with the russians they have to. give us

a rock or a russian citizen two three. three three they were all counted it's like a problem like this here teach in the united states and there is this tear it up in russia also in europe that americans are really coach trip people they don't read a lot the. intellectuals are isolated how they can you can further in on the one who you know i. first of all i knew great americans i knew robert frost out of school miller i hope the. zone stymied. you know i know the. bill styron was on my for a really close range on a day all of them their brains a lot of paul the only one full sort of life now don't you so full of an ivory tower no no no no i love a good cause some russians thirty million created by sun russians who are

integrated going to 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 greece exactly they invented this vessel and culture america aren't treasure america this probably but i think rebirth problem using all french people because not. only russians are culturally not you know thirty years easier than they were our pupils. in the school they'd make more and more grammatical mistakes than american it's a. to me this despite the pronoun cultural sunburns i give promotion for i'm thinking it's ok and i just want you to to say yes but this is a very important i had a discussion with my father who is of your generation he said that a cultural person should know a lot of poetry i said no i would say today you can you can be

a culture person without poetry so who's right me or my dad. i think you could culture the rest of my heart as well you name it real understand beauty of poetry of beauty be it is out there in the film beauty or poetry these would not understand tolstoy because all wrong skeete wrong. it is in easy image of fall for all his flaws with it there is a way to go yet i do it up i give out thank you and that was the beginning 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 the spotlight will be back with more for the coming started what's going on in and outside russia until the sail party and take care less of them.
