Венедикт Ерофеев is the phenomenon in Russian literature bright and ambiguous. His famous poem "Moscow is Cockerels", written as early as 1970, the family philosophical parable, work out of time, in fact Ерофеев created in a book the world, universe, in the center of that is a man, "man, as a venue of all plans of life". First appearing on the pages of magazine "Sobriety and culture", poem "Moscow is Cockerels" became the real by revelation for readers and was later translated on the great number of the world languages."In the universe of Ерофеева there is not good sense, logic, here is not a law, order. If to look at him outside, he will remain ununderstood. Only joining in the poetics of Ерофеева, only passing to his surrealism language, only becoming one of personages, eventually - by a coauthor, a reader can feel ideological tension philosophical-religious dialogue that is conducted by "bissextile people". But also then a reader will be able to know the ерофеевскую picture of the world, but not to understand her. Truth in fact in general it is impossible to get from the second hands" (А.
