“Journey from St. Petersburg to New York” is a memoir-biographical opus about our favorite heroes of an entire era. Solovyov and Klepikova knew Brodsky, Dovlatov, Baryshnikov, Shemyakin since Leningrad times and subsequently communicated closely and were friends. All of them were formed as artists in Leningrad, and were further realized overseas, in New York. In their book, the authors honestly and without embellishment describe the iconic characters of their generation, creating a voluminous, authentic, ambiguous portrait of our truly legendary compatriots.
