Моя любовь

Nastoyashchaya slava Asadova svyazana ne s voennymi i ne s patrioticheskimi ego stikhami (poslednikh otnositelno nemnogo, on nikogda ne spekuliroval na etoy teme), a imenno so stikhami o lyubvi, so studencheskimi i sredne intelligentskimi love-stories: izmena, raskayanie, prostit ne prostit, slezy. Asadov poet sentimentalnyy i nazidatelnyy, kak Karamzin (i, kak Karamzin, on sbivaet pafos druzhelyubnoy ironiey, ibo chitatelya svoego iskrenne lyubit). Stikhi ego chasto nazyvali rifmovannymi propisyami. On lyubovalsya kremnevoy tverdostyu svoikh neyarkikh, nebroskikh, no neproshchayushchikh geroin; i on zhe ot dushi, goryacho proshchal svoim nepostoyannym geroyam, stradal za nikh, zhalel ikh Dmitriy Bykov
