    The Essay Why is useful to read books

  The Essay Why is useful to read books
  
  
  Strange coincidence. Yesterday Sergei Sergeyevich read a considerable part of the book by Vyacheslav Kurilov "One in the ocean".
  
  According to the standard version this person in 1974 jumped from the Soviet liner at night into the ocean and then swam through about the 100 kilometers up to one of the Philippine Islands.
  
  Further - Canada. Later - Israel. According hints in the book, in the USSR at Kurilov had (remained) the wife and the son. In age of 61 years old Vyacheslav Kurilov died during one of immersions in the Red Sea.
  
  Some details of memories by Vyacheslav Kurilov about the life in the USSR are interesting. He rather long time lived on one of islands on Baikal.
  
  Now, apparently, on Baikal strengthen nature protection regulation. Locals feel discontent. The official explanation - visitors too much.
  
  Once, in past, any persons sought to leave Baikal (and the USSR).
  
  There passed not a lot of time, a people from the "western" countries go to Baikal ...
  
  And today Sergei Sergeyevich read about the female resident of Belarus which once (in 2010) acted in the movie "Brest Fortress", then lived in the different countries (was engaged in something), then she has gone to the USA for training in a (film) directing, at last, has married, and with the husband has gone to Alaska.
  
  Why did she go to Alaska?
  
  It turns out there was once a man, "survivalist" (he called himself a "survivalist"?), who lived a certain time in the desert regions of Alaska in an abandoned bus.
  
  The river overflowed. "Survivalist" could not return and eventually gave his soul to God...
  
  Let's leave aside Alain Bombard with his experience of a surviving. Perhaps, on the Bank of the river really to get food was not possible.
  
  The question is - what is a meaning (a purpose) of life in Alaska in an abandoned bus?
  
  Everyone has a right to live in the abandoned bus in a cool (frigid) climate ... Someone can have appropriate circumstances ...
  
  But what is attractive in such a life?
  
  It appears, the history of "survivalist" became a subject of the art description. Journalists wrote materials. The book is written. The film is shot. "Survivalist" and its bus became popular elements of "heroic reality".
  
  The female resident of Belarus not just moved to the USA (it would be more logical for her to act not in the movie about the Brest fortress, but in any movie about participation of the USA in World War II - especially as the USA and the USSR was allies), but also she made a honeymoon trip with the husband up to the "legendary" bus.
  
  There they, as it is possible to understand, did not feel special comfort. On the way back the female resident of Belarus slid off into the river and drowned ...
  
  Sergei Sergeyevich at some western writer, the contemporary Maxim Gorky, read the sketch connected with the next day by Maxim Gorky's birth.
  
  One of theses was such - mass media strengthen (make more powerful, influential) of any thought a many times ...
  
  "The ordinary person becomes defenseless against information influence", - Sergei Sergeyevich understood. - "It is more useful to read books ...". "To go to Alaska to visit some bus, in which once lived a man - no one is prohibited...".
  
  "You can try to reconstruct the thoughts of the defenders of the Brest fortress. They died, but they didn't give up... For the sake of what? "For the sake that the new generation" lived three years to Bali, allegedly being engaged in the real estate, and then became interested in visit of an autojunk (garbage) in some northern sparsely populated regions?"
  
  Sergei Sergeyevich frowned with bewilderment. "Let's say thoughts and intentions of defenders of the Brest fortress are not so clear, and are not so attractive as Bali and an auto old stuff. But why, - at such situation, - to participate in creation of movies about the heroic past?".
