Aksenov

The book "Aksenov" by Alexander Kabakov (1943-2020) and Evgeny Popov is more than just memoirs. It is a portrait of the Artist against the backdrop of his Time, a free conversation among free people about a close person with whom they had the chance to befriend for many years of tumultuous, grotesque, phantasmagorical Soviet and post-Soviet life. Eyewitness accounts, unknown stories, and rare documents refute the established stereotypes about both the writer and his works.
