The Interview about the questions to Confucius
- Was it difficult to write "Archipelago Crimea"?
- In any case the difficulties are existing. Not without that.
- But according the plot - not "archipelago", but "island".
- At first in draft copies there was "archipelago". In the publication - "island". What is "archipelago"? It is group of islands. Nearby the Crimea there are no islands?
- Now people read this work and think: "ability to look forward"!
- And why so not to think?
- Remember on the surface the specifics. Remember up a reality.
- In the Crimea happened often me to live. Well was. So I thought often about the Crimea.
- Yes ...
- But also, all the time about the China they spoke, about the Taiwan. That is, about the Formosa.
- About Formosa!
- Yes, it is. A students' ears during the lectures on the political situation were buzzed through.
The Crimean Oblast in 1954 in honor of the 300 anniversary of reunion of Ukraine with Russia was transferred to the Ukrainian SSR from the Russian SFSR.
... Crimea, Formosa ...
The thought started to analize... Some scraps of historical knowledge ... Some history was in 1958 in the Taiwan Strait ... An idea about voluntary association appeared... I have begun to write. Jokes about the drunk officer of the foreign warship... About the members of White Guard, were suddenly inspired for the successful defense ... About the Russian aristocrats, smart and entrepreneurial, but naive ... Something about hippies, karate (Jujutsu), a sex liberty... and the other anecdotal nonsense, which worried the gradually blunting society... Well, about a nostalgia... Stories for crazy ... Like the destruction by the troops of the state-neighbor the authorities of the Island, those the very authorities of the Island, who invited a powerful neighbor...... Well, not "stories for crazy", but - the literary scenes to scare... All this was required to be mixed well ... A laugh ... A kidding ... Someone to paint in a pink color ... Someone - in a black ... Turned out ...
- Everything at you is simple ... ... clear ...
- That you will say... I wrote about jokes and about the literary scenes to scare ... And somewhere at the bottom of memory, the memories of the faces of the Crimean people, maybe, were existing,- of the faces of the Crimean people, who sometimes were speaking about the transfer of the Peninsula "in honor of the 300th anniversary"... When sitting in a cafe, discussing the literary dregs and gossip... Inadvertently you may see something new in the faces, if during a conversation you will encounter a theme of "transferring" "in honor of the 300th anniversary of"...
- Now the question of "ability to look forward" is being discussed. But the China and the Taiwan (Formosa) still perfectly exist ...
- Ha-ha-ha ... Questions to Confucius! ... So and Taiwan wasn't transferred to anybody ...
- And yet, literature - mystical thing, kind of activity... The strange coincidence ... Aksyonov in Crimea...
-Ha-ha-ha... Without this it would not be so interesting ... Questions to Confucius!
- Thanks!
- E-e-e... Wait a minute!..
- I listen!
- You are - the journalist and the creative person!
- My motto - modesty!
- What would you personally write in 1979 - 1980 on the theme about the "transfer" "in honor of the 300 anniversary"?
- E-e-e ...
- I understand, it's impossible to give the briefly answer ... Good luck!
- Good luck! Good-bye.
