Oleg Dahl. I am a foreign artist

"Oleg Dahl is an artist for the ages!" said Valentin Gaft. Principled, devastatingly witty, with an unshakable inner freedom, Dahl was an "inconvenient" actor in the eyes of officials. He could suddenly leave the theater and abandon a production just... a few days before the premiere. However, directors considered him an outstanding artist with an incredibly wide range of acting capabilities. When Dahl passed away, a huge crowd gathered in front of the Maly Theater. Thousands of people from all over the country came to bid farewell to the actor, who had no titles or awards... In this book, film scholar Natalia Galadjeva has collected reflections, diary entries, poems of the famous actor, as well as memories of him from Lyudmila Gurchenko, Vasily Aksenov, Oleg Tabakov, and many others. What is the secret of his tragic fate? And why did such a talented artist leave so early — disappointed, undervalued, and not fitting into the framework of his time?
