Alexander Zinoviev. Prometheus rejected. Fokin P.E.

His biography could become the basis of the adventure series. He was persecuted by the NKVD, he fought at the front, he was expelled from the country for dissent, he received worldwide recognition, he traveled the whole world. A simple peasant son, originally from a deaf village, he became the intellectual leader of several generations of domestic and foreign philosophers. His “sociological novels” brought him the glory of the “first writer of the 21st century” long before the beginning of the new century. He was idolized and overthrow, called a genius and crazy, adored and hated, awarded and prepared attempts on him.

The book of P. Fokin is the first biography of Alexander Zinoviev (1922-2006), based on rich documentary material. Unusual in form, it is an attempt to comprehend the “phenomenon of Zinoviev” - the writer, philosopher, logic, sociologist, artist, poet, religious thinker, public figure, teacher.
