Poems of Mikhail Gutseriev, Chairman of the Board of Directors of RussNeft, have been published in October Issue of Nash Sovremennik literary journal.
Stanislav Kunyaev, Editor-in-Chief of the periodical and famous critic and publicist, noted in his review on Gutseriev`s poetry, that the Poet exhibits the finest artistry both in epic scenes and in delicate lyric verses suffused with his personal reflections and emotions.
In particular, the journal featured such poems as Asia-80, Flesh and Essence, Split Mind, Jericho, Crocodile People and others.
Over the last years the name of Michail Gutseriev as an author of lyrics of dozens of smash hits has become widely popular. His songs are performed by variety of Russian pop recording artists.
The publication of Gutseriev`s works and very favorable editorial review in one of the most reputed Russian journals - all that indicate the great recognition of his immense literary talent by professional writers community and massive readers circles. For the first time Gutseriev is portrayed not only as a popular lyrics author, but also as an exceptionally gifted poet, whose scope of talent is to be evaluated. “…And Gutseriev – self-made man of distinction and natural born poet, who wasn`t schooled by literary environment, who didn`t belong to any poetic society, who didn`t inhale the smoky air of professional disputes, may be unconsciously, but does wield the Veritas. Divine spark within him illuminates his path in poetry”, – Kunyaev wrote .
The Journal “Nash Sovremennik”, dedicated to contemporary prose and art journalism, was established in 1956 by Union of Writers of Russia. It has published the works of V. Shukshin, V. Rasputin, V. Soloukhin, A. Likhanov.
