"Peace to you, lonely walking"
crtofa, carried out in the title, is not only poetically concise and surprisingly beautiful. She is deeply autobiographical, as, indeed, the entire lyrical work of the father of the novel. Many years ago, he chose a secluded path for himself and still labels into the monastery of Vetrovo of the Pskov region, among swamps and forests, where to get an ordinary person is very difficult. From his wilderness, Father Roman still carefully monitors the events and spiritual processes in the modern world and responds to them in his accusatory verses, sometimes very bright and emotional. But it seems to me that the readers are more attracted not by the social position of our hermit, no matter how bright and fundamental it is, but his beautiful lyrical works. They basically entered the current collection.
These verses are truly talented. In them, the echoes of ancient Christian poetry and Russian classics, folk motifs and a very modern, lively and understandable view of the author in the world.
For many of his poems, Father Roman wrote wonderful music. I must say that, to my joy, I turned out to be the first to record the song’s song of the novel: thirty years ago in a parish watchman from our common friend Nikita’s father in the village of Borovik, the Pskov diocese, Father Roman, after long persuasion, sang on an old tape recorder those songs that are the songs that are the songs Now known to millions of people. Several years later, disputes flared up with might and main - can a monk compose and shift his poems to music? Yes, and to sing them yourself. Opinions were divided. Some were categorically against. Others assured that this was completely in the traditions of Orthodoxy, and at the same time, the songs of the Father of Roman also lead to faith many people. For me, such a case put the point in this dispute. Once, Metropolitan Pitimim sent me with a letter to His Holiness Patriarch Pimen. Waiting for an answer in the reception room, I heard the notes of the songs of the Father Roman, the very ones that we once made in a parish watchman at a deaf Pskov parish, were heard in the Patriarch’s office. I asked the Kelenik of His Holiness, the father of Joseph, where these cassettes come from. And Father Joseph said that the Patriarch loves to listen to the songs of the Father of the novel and, being not alien to both the compositions of poems and the composer gift, appreciates them highly. I think that it is difficult to add something to this.
On behalf of the publishers of this book, the remarkable artist Alexandra Nurakisheva, who painted wonderful illustrations, old and new friends of his father of Roman and, I hope, many readers, as well as taking advantage of the case, turn to my friend Hieromonk Roman with a request to write more lyrical works. Even to the detriment of the position of a "citizen and poet."
