Diaries. Zaikin N.P.

"The sadness of the world is entrusted to verses." - These piercing words of George Adamovich are consonant with the current work of Nikolai Zaikin. His fourth book “Diaries” is a poetic story about the author’s lyrical and spiritual life, with a through theme of sadness, which has already appeared in his previous collection of poems “The Circumstances of Life”. But this sadness is not hopeless, as is often the case, but such when “it becomes easier from the author’s speech itself with its so rare intonations, full of sad - but harmony” (Alexander Akayeva).
