Crazy ship
In the house of this Elisaveta era and almost Biron lived writers, artists, musicians. However, there lived servicemen, tailors, workers, and former servants… This was also later, and not only in the border with the NEP and the first NEP years.
Life was simplified to its primordial nature, and life took on a fantastic shape. It seemed to the inhabitants that this house was not a house, but a ship that was rushing to somewhere.
A little warm stove-burzhuyki, partitions, dividing once tastelessly-luxurious rooms on the cage – all indicated that ordinary everyday life is no more, that the accepted norms of relationships have disappeared, the habitual hierarchy of values has changed.
However, as on the edge of the volcano the vineyards are flourishing, so people here have blossomed in their best color. All were heroes, creators. New forms of the public, whole schools were created, books were written. In everyday life,
So, this was the place where at every step the elementary, the commoner was adjacent to the elite one. In the morning, passing by the washbasins, a man could be stopped by a shout: “Hey, listen… Let’s talk about the Logos.” It was Akhovich, who brushed his teeth, (AL Volynsky), an amazing scholar, ready to polemize with a representative of the old intelligentsia, and with the former servants, who were sitting in the kitchen around the still warm plate. The former loved Akovich for the complexity of his inner world, the latter for “simplicity”, accessibility: “Though he is a Jew, but as apostles, Russian.”
Fireworks of thought exploded loud and generous in the waste of creative forces Zhukanets (VB Shklovsky), in whose head – a good volume – the “Chinese method” in literary criticism (the formal method) that absolutized “reception” was born. And the author, writer Dolive, and Sohatu’s
Sohat, however, is promised a place somewhere and something of a manager. Panna Vanda, one of the sisters-owners of the cafe “Varshavianka”, only under this bill lets “educator-household” advances in the form of smiles and misty words that give rise to vague hopes. But the sisters suddenly disappeared, and the author met them years later in Italy occupied with something of the most famous and ancient profession.
Zhukanets consoled the friend: according to his “scheme of the new man,” the individual will be completely deprived of the remainder of personal principles and, free, will burst out with all the possibilities of his intellect. He took him to the poetic evening of Gaetan, which turned out to be the last. “With him, love ends… This page is closed with him forever.” The drooping Sohaty continued his research in the sphere of “life and story”, in one of the clubs of Lenin he read Russian literature for half a pound of bread and one candy, flying on the Crazy Ship to an unknown future, sometimes glad to see and hear his amazing crew and passengers. Alien Tour Operator (A. Bely) with his “Novel of Totals”; Mikula, almost an ingenious poet from the same sources as Rasputin; Yerslan (M. Gorky), who defended “them” before “us”, but before “them” “
And the poet Elan (NP Pavlovich), who claimed that she was “the last snow mask”; student of Roerich artist Kotikhina; general favorite, improvisator-entertainer and organizer of various draws, skits Genya Chorn (Evgeny Shvarts) – from the “new”. A young man of the Faun, whose name was simply Vova (L. Lunts), whose mighty run was stopped only by an early death, did not succeed, however, in preventing him from throwing the banner under which the surprisingly gifted youth gathered: “Aleut brother” (Sun Ivanov) – the creator of spicy and fragrant prose; Kopilsky (M. Slonimsky), in the room-pencil of which was born a fraternal union of poets and writers who believed that “art is real, like life itself”; a poet who turned out to be the founder of a new lyricism (Nick Tikhonov); A woman is a poet (not a poet, not a sister, but a full brother – Z. Polonskaya) – all of them with their creativity tied together two epochs, without betraying art. Yerslan was very attentive to these young people, valued and supported them. Indeed, through him, the past culture was connected with the culture of the future. He came as a worker and an intellectual, and their meeting in his person took place without mutual destruction.
The crazy ship completed its voyage almost two years after the Kronstadt events, making for Russian literature, perhaps more than any specially created creative association of writers and poets.
