Честное комсомольское!

Kazhdyĭ bolʹshoĭ pisatelʹ, tem bolee, kogda on eshchë i publit͡sist, stanovitsi͡a, volʹno ili nevolʹno, "zerkalom" svoeĭ ėpokhi. No pri odnom obi͡azatelʹnom uslovii - esli on iskrenen. Inache zerkalo poluchitsi͡a krivoe. Imenno iskrennostʹi͡u pronizany proizvedenii͡a I͡Urii͡a Poli͡akova, ėtim i privlekai͡ut oni chitateli͡a. A eshchë - iskromëtnym i͡umorom, zashkalivai͡ushcheĭ aforistichnostʹi͡u, ne vzirai͡ushcheĭ na lit͡sa. Vse ėto privelo k tomu, chto ego romany, pʹesy i statʹi stali letopisʹi͡u rossiĭskoĭ zhizni za neskolʹko desi͡atiletiĭ: ot publikat͡sii "ChP raĭonnogo masshtaba" do nashikh dneĭ. Poėtomu novai͡a kniga I͡Urii͡a Poli͡akova i poluchila svoë nazvanie - "Chestnoe komsomolʹskoe": v neĭ voplotilasʹ ta pravda zhizni, kotorai͡a tak kharakterna dli͡a avtora. A eshchë potomu, chto ėta po-svoemu unikalʹnai͡a kniga - rezulʹtat ego dlitelʹnogo sotrudnichestva so zvëzdami zhurnalistiki Li͡ubovʹi͡u Moiseevoĭ i Aleksandrom Gamovym, mnogo let rabotai͡ushchikh v legendarnoĭ "Komsomolʹskoĭ pravde". Bez ikh ostrykh, poroĭ neudobnykh, poroĭ shutlivykh voprosov ne rodilisʹ by na svet ostroumnye i otkrovennye otvety avtora, sostavivshie luchshie eë stranit͡sy. "Chestnoe komsomolʹskoe", bez somnenii͡a, mozhno nazvatʹ dnevnikom nasheĭ ėpokhi. Tak chto, dorogoĭ chitatelʹ, esli vy ne stradaete pravdoboi͡aznʹi͡u, ona - dli͡a vas.

Every great writer, especially when he is also a publicist, becomes, willingly or unwittingly ,a "mirror" of his era. But on one condition-if he is sincere. Otherwise, the mirror will be crooked. It is with sincerity that the works of Yuri Polyakov are permeated, this is what they attract the reader. And yet-sparkling humor, off-scale aphorism, not looking at the faces. All this has led to the fact that his novels, plays and articles have become a chronicle of Russian life for several decades: from the publication of "emergency district scale" to the present day. Therefore, a new book by Yuri Polyakov and got its name - "Honest Komsomol": it embodied the truth of life, which is so characteristic of the author. And also because this unique book is the result of his long cooperation with the stars of journalism Lyubov Moiseeva and Alexander Gamov, who worked for many years in the legendary "Komsomolskaya Pravda". Without their sharp, sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes humorous questions, the author's witty and Frank answers, which made up the best of her pages, would not have been born. "Honest Komsomol", without a doubt, can be called a diary of our era. So, dear reader, if you are not truth-fearing, it is for you.
