Выдающийся лирик Владимир Соколов (1928–1997), лауреат Государственной и Пушкинской премий, оставил большое творческое наследие. Книга «Это вечное стихотворенье…» воспроизводит путь поэта, длившийся полвека. Пройдем по этому времени вслед за высокой Музой одного из лучших русских поэтов XX века.
В четвертый том Собрания сочинений Г. Грасса вошли повести «Встреча в Тельгте» и «Крик жерлянки», эссе «Головорожденные», рассказы, стихотворения, а также «Речь об утратах (Об упадке политической культуры в объединенной Германии)».
Раскрывая тему героического прошлого нашей Родины, автор создал ряд поэтических произведений по мотивам русского былинного эпоса. Читатель познакомится с былинами о Даниле Ловчанине, о Микуле Селяниновиче, об Илье Муромце и других.
