Gospel of Love. Poems. @grappa_boy

Hello. My name is Nikita, and I am also called Grappa boy. I was born into the family of a popular Soviet writer, my roots are from Tula. I was supposed to become a priest: I studied for five years, but at the last moment, I did not dare to be ordained. I also had time to study at the Department of Arts in Berlin, fell in love with techno, raves, opera, fashion, art, and cinema. I worked as a copywriter, taught dramaturgy, screenwriting, and the history of advertising. I taught others how to write, how to compose hits. In 2017, I was supposed to die. I was diagnosed with cancer; I lay in the Blokhin Center for six months, bald and emaciated; during that time, I had time to think about everything and talk to God. Then I went into remission, and I decided not to waste a single day anymore. Today I am a screenwriter, writer, and musician. I have seen many amazing things, and several times in my life, I was fortunate to love the most beautiful women on this planet, and I know how precious this life is, how important it is to see the light in the darkness surrounding us. This is my first collection of poems; here is my entire story, all the pain and all the passion from the last 12 years. I hope this book inspires you to love life as much as I have managed to do.
