Book convincingly and bravely destroys the stereotypes folded round Высоцкого, argues with the preconceived, tendentious interpretation some facts from his biography. First personality of singer is examined taking into account influence of mighty communist ideology, "subcarpet" fight in the higher echelons of power. The detailed chronicle of life and work of Высоцкого, not popular facts and their unexpected comprehension, do a book in truth sensational.
