Гумилевы. 1720-2000. Семейная хроника. Летопись жизни и творчества Н. С. Гумилева. XX столетие. Родословное древо

Vladimir Polushin's book is dedicated to the life and work of the great Russian poet Nikolai Gumilyov. The author not only traces the milestones of the poet’s fate, but also describes in detail the family tree of N. Gumilyov, and also talks about the lives of his equally famous descendants - Lev Gumilyov and Orest Vysotsky. This unique book is the fruit of many years of work and research by the author. It immerses the reader in the atmosphere of the complex and tragic era of the Russian poetic Renaissance. Numerous meetings with the poet's contemporaries and descendants became the basis for a lively and excited narrative, which may seem unusually expressive for an encyclopedic publication. However, the publishers considered it necessary to preserve the high note of emotional tension and all the features of the author's style.
