Near Apollo. Nine
Presentation of the book "Nine" by Boris Kherson (Folio, 2020) "Nine" is a new book by Boris Kherson (Folio Publishing House, 2020). The book includes selected poems written in the last three years. The name "Nine" is associated with the number of muses. The book is divided into nine parts. The model was the book of Herodotus "History", which was divided into nine parts, each of which bore the name of a muse. At the same time, the content of the book of Herodotus was in no way connected with those types of arts that were patronized by one or another Muse, rather the whole book was a tribute to the Muse of History - Cleo. The same can be said about this book of poems - History is its main heroine. Most of the poems included in the book are published for the first time or published in literary magazines.
