Лампада

The book "Lampada" is not a collection of poems, but the last in writing and the ninth in creation of poetic book by Oleg Okhapkin.
Four collections of poems published during the poet's lifetime could not reflect his main idea that "each poem should remember the moment from which it came." Why is it important to print not only "shock poems", but poetic books that would be perceived by the reader as a single text.
The poetic book, so characteristic of the poetry of the Silver Age, is practically a lost tradition. It is a rarity for the creator himself.
"Lampada" is the last poetic upsurge of Oleg Okhapkin. This is an absolutely solid work, with a spontaneously developed dramaturgy, which can be used to trace the path of his spiritual warfare.

The graphics of the poet's daughter Xenia are used in the design of the book.
