Гори, звезда моя, не падай...

Podlinno narodnyy poet Sergey Esenin khuligan i skandalist, no i tonkiy lirik, vospevshiy pechalnye prostory Rusi, tyemnye kabaki bolshogo goroda i zoloto uvyadanya. V 1924 godu, na zakate svoey korotkoy zhizni, Esenin pisal: Ne obgoryat ryabinovye kisti, / Ot zheltizny ne propadet trava. / Kak derevo ronyaet tikho listya, / Tak ya ronyayu grustnye slova.... Sbornik, kotoryy vy derzhite v rukakh, vozmozhnost vslushatsya v grustnye slova lyubimogo poeta, otsenit vsyu moshch i neissyakayushchuyu svezhest ego darovaniya.
