Skyscrapers, skyscrapers, and I'm a little ...
Soviet agitprop run smoothly, sometimes even talented, but not always - delicately. As a rule, the best atitatsionno there were promotional materials created by chance, in passing, without a specific goal. One example - the book Nikolai Nosov "Dunno on the Moon." To be honest, we have chosen the best propaganda of the communist way I have not met. For those who never read the book, I will tell in a few words - Earthlings living in a communist society, visit the moon and see where rampant capitalism. Knocked about in a terrible and absurd lunar world, friends Dunno arranges bloodless revolution.
It would seem that after the success of the first parts Nosovskaya epic, it would be difficult to wait for the triumph of the third part - usually, sequels and other "continue" look silly, pale and unnecessary. With "Dunno on the Moon" it was exactly the opposite - he was a real bestesellerom, and, interestingly, this highly customized, largely ideologized thing is still among the top children's libraries. I will not talk about the reasons for this popularity. Rather, the point is a special energy book, in the mood of the author, who was at that moment at the top of his literary fame.
So, let's talk about this book - that it interesting?
1. Opposition systems.
In the book Nosova lunar opposed to capitalism is not developed? th socialism and communist society with its its attributes, clear child - in Flower City everything's cool, high-tech and - free of charge. On Earth, there is no money! On the Moon they are and that's the difference in the economic system even backfire Dunno and donuts. At the same time the boys headed by technocrat Znayka, commune and live modestly powered. They (if you look carefully), there are many sorts of cars (including a space rocket), but quite primitive life.
On the Moon, life is quite different - there is so much zavlekalochek, ranging from advertising, and the last large-scale entertainment industry, just look at first. And most importantly - it seems. And not to the mythical cartoon-western capitalism, which is painted in each room, "Crocodile", and ... the Russian 1990 and partly in the present. Nosov appeared visionary. He saw what he felt his readers long after reading. For example, as the main genre moon movie was presented a genre thriller or detective. More specifically, the above mixture of genres. What do we see today? Whatever time of day or night, we included no TV screens - shooting, escapes from prison, investigative experiment and the crime scene. In many different guises - from the documentary "investigation", to a multi-year series was old (during filming) artists.
Here, for example, a passage about gorgeous lunar press. I even venture to bring it in full: "There were" business savvy "," Newspaper for plump "and" Newspaper for the thin "and" Newspaper for smart "and" Newspaper for fools. " Yes Yes! Do not be surprised: it was "for fools." Some readers may think that it would be unreasonable to call a newspaper in a similar way as one would buy a newspaper with the same name. After all, no one wants to be thought a fool. However, residents on such trifles do not pay attention. Everyone who bought "newspaper for fools," said he did not buy it because he considers himself a fool, but because it is interesting to know what there is for fools write. Incidentally, the newspaper conducted very reasonable. Does it even fools can understand. As a result, "Newspaper for fools' expenses in large quantities ...»
You do not find that all modern press is built on to be closer to the "supposedly ordinary people" whose "business savvy"? Well, for fools, I'm sorry for being rude. By the way, people working in the glossy press - very smart, with a good education and a decent home libraries. But they quite sincerely believed that by creating the notorious "Newspapers for fools," is easier to get rich.
Or joint-stock companies, which were created on the Moon rogues. Remember Stock Company giant plants on which fell for the poor? And remember hotel "Economic", where seemingly cheap room turned around as a result of dorogushchim? There are not only bedding charged separately, but it was impossible to open the wardrobe for free.
2. Stupid Island.
We go there unreliable inhabitants of the moon - the poor, the homeless and other hippies. Tellingly, the island no one sticks in the mines - no "sad work," generating "doom the highest aspiration." On the contrary - the mass entertainment. Here, you and kinoshka and attractions, and the grub from the belly, and sleep till noon. But everyone knows that in the end, people on the Island turn into sheep. In the truest sense of the word. Nosov said something like the parable that idleness and entertainment lead to complete degradation. By the way, a few years ago, kotogda on TV was a large-scale advertising of beer with dulled mladezhi, one of the journalists thought it was about this snippet of "Dunno ..." However, the unforgettable Dom-2 - it is something like that of the island itself, but in miniature. As a friend of mine said: "If these people once and knew how to read, a long time ago forgotten how ...»
3. This is a book for children and adults.
I understand that there are children who realize that the name Los Poganos consonant with the Los Palmos and the city Panopticon-like structure Connecticut. There are children who see in the title of Big Bradley (lunar bunch of oligarchs) the word "nonsense" and "bedlam." But there are few such children. Basically, it can see their parents. For example, the Company operates in a fairy tale Free Twister (ie people who twirl carousel). Any adult understands the analogy of the Freemasons. Fertingi = Sterling Santika = centimes. Rocket FIS - Fuchs and Herring (in honor of beautiful women). Rocket NPC - Dunno and donuts - after missing comrades. Shop different-sized products. Awesome because it sounds? Or "speaking" names - Skuperfild, Spruts, Dryaning (the founding father of the network nochlezhek). Names such as Julio - a typical Mediterranean variant, a mixture of swindler and Julio.
4. Food.
Judging by the description of household details, then there emerges a strange picture - heroes Nosov surprisingly easy feed. Even lunar restaurants. Remember that ordered in the restaurant Dunno, hitting the lunar city. Soup, macaroni and cheese, cabbage rolls, a cup of coffee and ice cream. Approximately dined average worker in the factory canteen, and a coffee and ice cream could consume in a nearby tea. At the same time, in the fairy tale very much to eat, and, it does not only notorious glutton-donuts. Mouth-watering descriptions of jelly, soups, pasta and meatballs has virtually every chapter. Chic scene kastyuley semolina, which alone skhomyachil donuts. Or elegant name - "Pischezapravochnaya station" where everything is the same Doughnut traded salt. Tasty written and the scenes of eating "space food" of the tubes. A more pleasing giant plants - this dream embodied Michurinist.
I do not know the details of the biographical Nikolay Nosov, but somehow I think that the author in his time enough nagolodalsya. Moreover, he always dreamed of not some specialties (they are in a fairy tale at all, not even the rich), and it is simple and hearty dishes.
5. Relations between the sexes.
Of course, many of you will say that it is - a fairy tale, and so dig in psychoanalysis - tactically wrong. However, it is interesting. Look - in the books Nosov Dunno about the adventures of boys living separately from the girls. Fuchs and Herring of the epic lunar present occasionally as assistant Znayka. Imagine that there is a doctor or Znayka Pilyulkin girls may have some interest - it is impossible. On the Moon - the same picture. In lunar residents do not have wives, even among the rich - and it would be possible to describe with relish, his wife Sprutsa squanders money. There is a lone Ms Lamprey, the dogs who care Dunno. Is it lonely maid. There is episodic journalist who photographed Dunno in a spacesuit. And by and large - everything. Books about Dunno - it's a man's world, a world of creative boys who in their life especially and did not need women.
6. Sun.
The image of the Sun (or as they say fairy tale characters - sun) - a key in the narrative. If you remember, the inhabitants of the moon do not live on the moon, and in the moon, that is, they have a solid sky and there are no bodies. In the last chapters of Dunno in developing something like a depression - from lack of sun. Interesting premise, if you think about it - in the lunar capitalist world is not the main source of light. I will not go into the mythological essence of the eternal opposition of the Moon and the Sun and will not call friends Neznaykinyh pagan sun-worshipers, but still, all Kiyoshi ...
7. The bugs, rats and other attributes the harsh life.
On the Moon, many poor people live in slum hotels, like a rooming house of mnogoizvestnoy Gorky's play. Bed bugs and rats that live in these places, written a very weighty, roughly, visibly. And, apparently, is autobiographical. For a very heartfelt. And in general, the author skillfully depicts the life of the men's hostel - this is especially evident in the chapter devoted to the slammer. Tellingly, Dunno, who came from a world where for bugs and unsanitary conditions have no social base, still knows what it is. Well, in general, about the money he asks, and about bedbugs - no.
8. physicists and poets.
In the fairy tale shows a typical technocratic society headed by Znayka and his henchmen - cogs and Shpuntik. Humanitarians are presented rather poorly. Moreover, Dunno and donuts in the course of doing nothing and are considered a sort of lazy staff provided by the program.
On the Moon, by the way, in art triumphs (or rather - rude) modernism. Remember Goat Dunno explains that the painting hanging in their office, nothing is shown.
"You, my friend, it is better to not see the picture, - she told him Goat. - Do not break my head knowingly. There still can not understand anything. We are all artists as paint, because only rich people are the pictures and buy. One such namalyuet zagogulinki here, the other will represent some strange zakoryuchechki third did nalёt liquid paint in the tub, and it will be enough in the middle of the canvas, so get some absurd, meaningless blur. You look at that spot, and you can not understand anything - just some sort of abomination! And the rich look and even praises. "We say, and do not want the picture was clear. We do not want any artist to something where we taught ».
Like any talented book "Dunno on the Moon" gives food for thought. And fantasies. For example, I've read that Nosovskaya shorty - like the Soviet hobbits, and Flower City - a Hobbitshir ... Durnin print and on the topic of "Heroes Nosov - homosexuals" - well, the girls they have there on the edge, and in general. I come across an article, and that in the post-perestroika era, capitalism was not built on economic textbooks, but in "Dunno ..." In general, everyone will find his own. With all the richness of meaning, I imagine this book as a good anti-capitalist treatise child clarity.
