Author's autograph The secret of the charm of Vladimir Vishnevsky's poems lies in the fact that under external irony he does not try to hide his sensitivity and tenderness. He loves this ridiculous world, inconsistent life, where often true thoughts and feelings are replaced by a set of common clichés. The author made this clichéd environment both the target of his ridicule and the subject of poetry. Designed for a wide range of readers.
