Famous fugitives emigrants Bashny.Net

June 30, 1974, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Soviet ballet dancer, made his famous escape "there". For nearly 40 years, he did not consider it necessary, living in the United States, to return to Russia. we have decided to recall five more of our fellow citizens who have decided to break with their homeland once and for all.

Will be 6 photos.





Rudolf Nureyev. Live in the Union has shown great promise ballet dancer really do not like, and in 1961, while on tour in Paris, he decided never to return to the "Council of Deputies."

In the West, it was waiting for a resounding success. Received Austrian citizenship, he starred in London and in the United States, proving to the world that in the field of ballet we really ahead of the rest. By the way, there are still a version that in 13 years Mikhail Baryshnikov persuaded to stay in the West was Nureyev.



Joseph Brodsky. The person who received the Nobel Prize - the pride of not only Russian or American poetry, literature and heritage of the whole world. Anna Akhmatova idolized him, he envied Yulian Semenov and Sergei Dovlatov and his hated the Soviet regime, which he reciprocated in 1972 to go to America.

Perhaps Joseph Brodsky was the closest to the rest to return (he almost had already bought tickets to St. Petersburg, in which he was eager to return), but the sudden death in 1996 prevented him again to see his hometown.



Andrei Tarkovsky. With Tarkovsky's films at home is always something going on: you are not allowed to hire a wide, then just put the film on the shelf, considering it "ideologically wrong". Power choked creator, did not allow him to work.

It is clear that in the end, even the genius and clever, how was certainly Tarkovsky, patience is exhausted: in 1984, being on the set of the painting "Nostalgia" in Italy, he decided to stay in the West. Unfortunately, Andrei Tarkovsky was not able to fully enjoy the freedom - he died in Paris two years later, in 1986.



Ivan Bunin. Ivan himself, when he was asked about the meaning of human life, often replied that he Bunin, seen in this very life absolutely everything that can accommodate human life: 3 Revolution (1905, February and October 1917), two world wars, one civilian, scientific and technological revolution, the collapse of Russian civilization and culture ... It was difficult to surprise, but the Communists in Russia by its actions it did.

Needless to say, that a nobleman, writer, whom everyone called the last Russian classic, a deeply religious man, hated the Bolsheviks. His flight to France was quite natural. More surprising that its most powerful things ("Arsenyev's Life," "Dark Alleys"), he wrote in exile, awarded the Nobel Prize. All my books in exile, he continued to write about Russia.



Feodor Chaliapin. The first People's Artist of the Republic, the shouting about him Mayakovsky, a close friend of Lenin and Gorky, completely seduced build ... Nobody thought that he "hit the road" over the hill in 1922.

Funny, but formally, Chaliapin not fled to the United States, no one "defector" is not declared. He simply decided not to return. In addition, publicly decry the new government in Russia and the Soviet system, he did not. Nevertheless, in 1927 the Bolsheviks took away his title of People's Artist of the alleged connection with the "emigrant monarchist circles" in Europe.
