literature at universities in the USA, in the early 90s he lived in France and returned to Russia. The book includes works from his early period — “Star Ticket,” “Oranges from Morocco,” “It’s time, my friend, it’s time.” “Aksyonov has a unique gift — to be a hero of his time while remaining a hero of modernity. He does not have one main book. There are at least two Aksyonovs — before 'Burn' and after 'Burn.' There is the author of confessional prose of the magazine “Youth,” there is the dissident Aksyonov writing for future 'samizdat’ and 'tamizdat.' There is a third Aksyonov, the author of “Island of Crimea” — a thinker, the creator of a brilliant political-philosophical parable. As well as the creator of “Stocked Barrel Goods,” “Oranges from Morocco,” separate, unique texts. The novel “It’s time, my friend, it’s time” is a wonderful, beloved work of mine…” (Alexander Kabakov) “Vasily Aksyonov is one of the brightest people of the 'thaw' generation. He tried to preserve this warmth of the 'thaw' all his life and invited his readers to follow him.” (Andrei Bitov)
