Sasha Cherny (1880–1932), the famous satirical poet, according to some estimates - “a hopeless pessimist”, according to others - “a child’s soul.” What was this man like, who created a caustic picture of his era and suddenly turned to opposite genres? What made him rush from satire to poetry, from revolutionary manifestos to religious missionary work, from poisonous political pamphlets to poetry for children? For what reasons did he leave the thriving magazine Satyricon? Why did he avoid people, although his social circle included Kuprin, Averchenko, Gorky, Chukovsky, Marshak? Why did I spend my whole life searching for the “naked peak”? How did it happen that he went through the entire First World War, and in the decisive days of 1917 he ended up in Pskov, the epicenter of crucial events for the state?.. Victoria Milenko, candidate of philological sciences, presents to the readers the first attempt at a complete biography of the poet, where he and creative and geographical milestones of his path: Odessa, Bila Tserkva, Zhitomir, St. Petersburg, Heidelberg, Pskov, Vilnius, Berlin, Rome, Paris and finally Provence - his desired “naked peak”. information production sign 16 +
