SINYAVSKY rightly considered Bahchanyana latest futurist. Vagrich - a living fossil. It is possible to study the spirit of the revolutionary era, love that it is not weaned, even America.

We wanted to buy him at the Brighton Beach matriculation, but Vagrich said that he decided to die half-educated - as Brodsky.

Or rather - hindered, but not Bahchanyanu. Once Vagrich became visible in the figure, wrote a satirical article about him and fired from work.
