Victor Tsoi was an ordinary Leningrad teenager who became the conscience and voice of his generation at the height of the 1980s, and in August 1990 he turned into a legend in an instant. Vitaliy Kalgin recounts the life of Tsoi β artist, musician and leader of the Leningrad rock group "KINO" β using previously unpublished testimonies, personalβarchive documents and rare photographs. The book reconstructs the world of the 1980s Leningrad rock scene and shows how Tsoiβs tragic death in a car crash in 1990 cemented his status as a lasting cultural icon. It offers a factual, richly illustrated portrait of the musicianβs creativity, his impact on Soviet youth, and the myth that grew after his death.
