Women's stories 30.04.2000 (2000)

Today we have already forgotten how it was - for the sake of a new volume of poems people were ready to stand at the door of shops at night, as the collections of young poets snapped up, how to memorize them by heart ...

We forgot this time - the poetic boom of the early 60's, the starry time of the heroine of the program, the poetess Rimma Kazakova, who was just accepted at the time to the Writers' Union of the USSR.

A strange vision of the world came to her as a child.

Poetry, according to Rimma Feodorovna, is not only poetry itself.

First of all, poetry is a sense of harmony and beauty of the surrounding world.

Perhaps that's why she immediately chose the distribution to the Far East right after the end of the Faculty of History of Leningrad University, - she was attracted by the romance of the unknown and the thirst for struggle against difficulties.

Later she married, moved to Moscow and gave birth to a son who, from her childhood, tried to instill a love for the beautiful and artistic word.

Over time, Yegor also became a writer.

Rimma Kazakova is by nature a cheerful and optimistic person, she loves and accepts life as she is without demanding more from her.

Probably, it was this quality that helped overcome the family tragedy (Egor for a long time was treated for drug addiction).

The poet does not like to remember this period of their lives, but he does not hide it, he does not hesitate about it, because what happened was.

The main thing for her in life is love.

She does not skimp on it, does not hesitate to show it in life and in poetry.

Her grandchildren are growing up, whom she calls "my little children."

And of course, the work without which she does not represent her life.

Until now, she receives letters in which the pain, tears and desperation of mothers whose children are unsuccessfully trying to recover from a terrible illness, and she tries to help anyone who is possible.
