 Today – Day D. It’s the birthday of Sergei Dovlatov. The writer would have turned 75 years old. He died in New York, in exile, when he was just 48, of a heart attack. But God does not ask for supplements. This is his aphorism, one of his many wonderful aphorisms. And today, all the fans of Sergey Dovlatov lightheartedly celebrate the anniversary of the writer. The main events – in St. Petersburg, where Dovlatov lived most of his life. In St. Petersburg this weekend -. Citywide festival

This is how the organizers of the festival in honor of Sergei Dovlatov called a series of commemorative events. This films about Dovlatov, and excursions to the places where he lived, where there were, it quests and open reading. The Museum of Modern Art “Erarta” – exhibition of photographs by Nina Alovert. It is also an immigrant, was, one might say, bytopisatelnitsey Dovlatov in his last years. Recalls historian Lev Lurie when Alovert, back in 1989, the year of the Soviet Union, told Dovlatova what fame he enjoys among the people, he said: “Too late, Nina, too late.”

This is where he is wrong. His fame can not be life. Because he was totally unprincipled writer whose texts there is nothing particularly important, just life, as he had said about him colleague Alexander Genis:. “Life, undisguised intent in all its nakedness»

«decent person one who does bad things with pleasure. ” Surely it is written about one of those who had once been raised in an apartment at this Dovlatova stairs. It leads from the yard-well in the street Rubinstein, there were many heroes and friends Dovlatov. Leningrad literary circle was narrow. The poet Yevgeny Rein and Sergei Dovlatov lived on the same street. With writer Andrew Aryan Philology studied in one – and equally looked at how to live.

«No need to be a person who goes ahead of all. It is desirable that you have noticed in the crowd. No need to get up on the buskins, even if you think that has dignity. If you have them stick out, you instantly become a laughing stock, “- says Aryev

I was above all Dovlatov to style.. He could write that Paris rather than London – the capital of the UK, that in the same sentence was too many letters “El”. He believed that selfless lie – it’s not a lie, and poetry

«Of course, the” I “that is present in his prose, -. This is it. He does an autobiographical writer. But he is, above all, a writer. And every time his subordinates, relatively speaking, lyrical different circumstances. Rather similar circumstances different sets, i.e. he writes. He is not dependent on the true reality “, – he says the poet Yevgeny Rein Dovlatova each

dovlatovskogo wit correlate with Gogol, Zoshchenko and Schwartz.. Simple plot, simple structure of the phrase – and an incredible effect. His own formula: humor – an inversion of common sense. Smile mind. It is in the literature. And when he wrote for the newspaper, he said that even the handwriting changes. In the Soviet Union he was almost unable to publish anything. Famous Russian writer became – in America. When home evening for Russian emigrants read his notebooks, the photographer Nina Alovert charmed his way.

«He has a very interesting appearance – filled. Not just a blank face, and always filled with thoughts, feelings. You know, a big man – it is interesting to shoot, “- said Nina Alovert

A huge, irresistible -. At the same time terribly insecure. Another dovlatovskogo paradox. His image had seen the beauty of the ancient god. But the monument, which was established in St. Petersburg in the days of the anniversary, of course, will be different. Behind the writer – the door to the communal apartment number 34. The one where the folder is stored in thick sheets, which for so long never printed. Now Dovlatova words engraved in the metal.

  «What is happiness – to say what you think! What a meal – think of what you say »
