Yevgeny Sazonov , a fictional “writer, prose writer, writer, and essenizer” [1] , a soulmate and lyudovedologist [2] , who first appeared in the Literary Gazette on January 4, 1967 , when excerpts from his “novel of the century” called "Stormy flow." The original author of this image is one of the founders of the “Twelve Chairs Club” (the name of the 16th page of the “LG”, the only one in the newspaper that published satirical and humorous materials), theater director and playwright Mark G. Rozovsky [3] . Victor Perelman , the former head of the information department "LG", as the author of "Evgeny Sazonov" calls the editorial staff of the 16th page Vitaly Borisovich Reznikov [4] . In general, Yevgeny Sazonov is the fruit of the collective creativity of the satirists Literature. For decades, the novel has been published “The Turbulent Stream” (and the script for this novel [5] ), other works (including poems), a portrait, biography details, “writer's” memoirs, excerpts from his notebook and much more.
Evgeny Sazonov is considered the Soviet version of Kozma Prutkov . In this image, some typical features of the average Soviet writer were played up ironically - false pathos , claims for the epic character of the narrative (“novels of the century”, “novels-epics”, “large-scale canvases”), knowledge of the human character, etc. Even his wedding is called “The Wedding of the Century” (judging by the title of the essay with the same name).
- Ushe-her-ate! Shouted Anna, and tears poured in a torrential stream over her beautiful weathered head.
One day, Yevgeny Sazonov was slain, describing the funerals and funerals ("... gathered ... to see the dead person, show themselves ..."), and then resurrected. Earlier in the same vein was written a report from his wedding: “Today here, as L. Tolstoy would have written,“ all Moscow ”. Familiar faces of writers, artists, actors flash. Many, many creative intellectuals. At first among all this creative intelligentsia it is impossible to discern who is Sazonov. But then you get used to, you begin to distinguish one from the other. Someone has different color socks, someone writes another fountain pen ... " [6]
"Sazoniada" was included in the first collection of the "Club of 12 chairs" (1973), as well as in the 11th volume of the anthology of satire and humor of Russia of the XX century, dedicated to the "Club of 12 chairs" [7] .

Quotes about literature
- “Anyone can become a writer here. Here are the addresses, names and phone numbers of comrades, most of whom are writers. Many of them at one time were in high school. I also tried to finish school, but my parents made me sit down for the romance of the century, “Stormy Flow,” and from a young age I had to learn the bitter bread of a writer - lyudoveda and soullyuba ... Now it is easy to become a writer. Just need to write something. It used to be difficult. " [one]
- “The reader should love the writer, ask for his autograph and actively buy his works of art. Writers of bad books do not write. If the book is published, it means that it is good. And we don’t publish bad books, because nobody needs them. Literary criticism should protect the writer from readers. It happens that a different reader will unwind before that he begins to dislike this or that writer who creates artistic panels of prose, poetry and drama. A critic must make the reader love any printed word. ” [one]
