Деревянное яблоко свободы
Книжная серия «Пламенные революционеры» была задумана и запущена Политиздатом в 1968 году. Одним из приглашенных к участию в серии авторов стал и Владимир Войнович. Из всех предложенных издательством кандидатур по теме писатель выбрал личность эсерки, террористки, члена Исполнительного комитета партии «Народной воли» – Веры Фигнер. Террор в истории человечества применялся одними людьми против других всегда, начиная с Каина. Но народовольцы стали родоначальниками террора организованного. Эти люди, по словам Ленина, «страшно далекие от народа», были первыми, кто поставили политические убийства на поток. Члены партии сделали их главным орудием своей борьбы и готовы были расплачиваться за свои убеждения и деяния не только жизнями классовых и идейных врагов, но и своими собственными жизнями. Автора захватила возможность окунуться в исторический материал и взглянуть на переломный период в истории России через призму взглядов, поступков и судьбы в целом одного из решительных его героев. В этом романе Войнович предстает пред нами как историк, философ, знаток тонкой душевной организации своих героев. В жестких рамках политической цензуры, исторических фактов, документов и воспоминаний современников и участников событий, Владимир Николаевич, ищет и предъявляет читателю судьбу ЧЕЛОВЕКА! Он не героизирует и не обличает, он дает возможность потомкам самим оценить дела и поступки героев былых времен, позабытых давно имен. Роман «Деревянное яблоко свободы» в советское время выходил многомиллионными тиражами под названием – «Степень доверия». Теперь и у вас, уважаемые любители аудиокниг, есть возможность познакомиться с его современной аудиоверсией. Также не пропустите аудиокниги по произведениям Владимира Войновича: про «Жизнь и необычайные приключения солдата Ивана Чонкина»: «Лицо неприкосновенное»; «Лицо привлеченное»; «Перемещенное лицо»; по роману «Малиновый пеликан»; роману; по повести «Шапка», по культовому роману «Москва 2042» и аудиокниги по сборнику сказок-притч «Сказки дедушки Володи».
