The laureate of the Buker Prize Julian Barnes is one of the most striking and original prose writers of modern Britain, the author of such international bestsellers as “England, England”, “Flobert Parrot”, “The History of the World in 10½ Keems”, “Love and so on”, “Noise” time ”(Roman about Shostakovich, published in 2016, when the whole world celebrates the 110th anniversary of the great Russian composer) and many others. Perhaps his main talent is the ability to easily and naturally play in his works with styles and directions. Thin stylization and caustic irony, sophisticated lyricism and sarcasm, rigidity and fun mischief - Barns is subject to all this and much more. In the book “There is nothing to fear”, he reflects on the fear of death and that for many it determines the attitude to death - about faith. As always, Barnes" thoughts cover a wide cultural context in which stories from the life of the great, but departed - Montaena and Flauber, Stendhal and Brothers Gonkur, Shostakovich and Rossini - are interspersed with autobiographical observations
