Summary
Vladimir Kazakov: My meetings with Vladimir Kazakov
Born in Moscow, in a family of Russian, Armenian and Polish origin. Expelled from the military school in 1956, expelled from the Pedagogical Academy in 1958, worked in Čukotka and Kolyma in manual jobs. Since 1965, he devoted himself to writing. He creates in the spirit of the Russian avant-garde and the literature of the absurd, under the influence of Khlebnikov, Harms and Vedensky, with clever excursions and an experimental genre combination of poetry, prose and drama. Reading Vladimir Kazakov is the discovery of a special world created from the author's linguistic imagination - miraculous, fairy-tale, illusionistic, ephemeral, ancient, phantasmagoric, lyrical...
My Meetings with Vladimir Kazakov is his first published book, published in 1972 in Germany. The text consists of a series of prose and dramatic miniatures, in the spirit of the poetics of futurism.
