The book by the famous art critic Alexander Yakimovich, written in a lively, polemical manner, recreates a panorama of art, culture and life of two "historical continents" - the West and the Soviet Union; parallels and divergences in the paths of development in various cultural areas are considered for the first time in their connection and comparison, against the background of common historical events and processes. The author offers his personal interpretation of key works of painting, architecture, literature and cinema of the middle and second half of the twentieth century, tells about the fate of the Artist in the face of power and society, ideologies and systems, "higher truths" and the demands of the time in the "era of great paradoxes". The book is addressed to art critics, cultural scientists, historians, as well as a wide range of readers interested in the culture of the twentieth century.
