Who is he, a simple guy from the people, who rose to the heights of literature and became a classic poet? How did he live? How did he live? The memory of the national poet of Yakutia Semyon Petrovich Danilov is carefully preserved. Not a day goes by when his songs and poems are not heard on national radio and television. His works are reissued, and Danilov readings are held. It is dedicated to the international poetry festival 'Grace of the big snow', which the Union of writers of Yakutia holds every two years. This book is about him. About someone who has proved throughout his life that 'a poet in Russia is more than a poet'! About a man who returned to his people the names of their first writers.
