Mike Naumenko. Escape from the Zoo

Mikhail "Mike" Naumenko (1955–1991) is a poet, translator, musician, and one of the most unconditional icons of "Russian rock." Whether a man or an epic hero. That is why his literary biography must combine the features of a historical novel... and the "Odyssey." Such is Alexander Kushnir's book "Mike Naumenko. Escape from the Zoo," where the memories of eyewitnesses intertwine with indisputable documents, and personal impressions coexist with analytical calculations. The publication completes the triptych of the author's books dedicated to the "lives of forbidden people," whose heroes in the previous two volumes were Sergey "Captain" Kurёkhin and Ilya Kormiltsev.
