Hronika chastnoy zhizni. 1957-1969

Eta kniga o zhizni v znamenitye, burnye, yarkie shestidesyatye proshlogo veka. Kogda fiziki i liriki sporili, kto kruche. Kogda v polnyy golos stali pet' Okudzhava i Vysockiy. Kogda lyudi nachali osoznavat', chto vozmozhna inaya zhizn', chem ta, kotoroy oni zhili v poslevoennye gody. Kazhdyy epizod, fakt, syuzhet, opisannyy v "Hronikah", proishodil na samom dele, s real'nymi lyud'mi. V etoy dostovernosti - glavnyy interes povestvovaniya. Ono sostoit iz nebol'shih zarisovok, mgnovennyh snimkov, shvachennyh v gusche zhizni. Geroi etih syuzhetov - studenty, vrachi, aspiranty, meneesy, nastoyaschie shestidesyatniki: yumornye, nasmeshlivye, ironichnye, grustnye i veselye, zhivye, yarkie personazhi teh legendarnyh let. Nu a samoe zamechatel'noe, - chto vse opisannoe proishodilo ne v abstraktnom, pridumannom mire, a v prekrasnom sibirskom gorode Tomske, kotoromu v 2004 godu ispolnyaetsya 400 let.
