Commentary In Pursuance Of Books The Three Fat Men

Doctor Gaspar Arney
What a clever man is he!
He can trap the sliest fox,
He can crack the hardest rocks,
He can fly from here to Mars,
He can reach the farthest stars!

This jolly song takes us in to the world of make-believe created by Yuri Olesha. The scene is set in a fantastic land ruled by three greedy fat men who are engrossed in eating and making merry in their palace. Meanwhile, curious things are happening outside the high palace walls.
You will learn all about this and much more when you read this wise, merry tale that is so like the truth.

The Three Fat Men, a favorite with all Soviet children, has run to over 30 printings, it was made into a film, and performed at many theaters in Russia.

"Yuri Olesha (1899-1960), a Soviet prose writer and playwright, is immensely popular with readers for his novel Envy, his short stories, plays and the famous book for children The Three Fat Men, which is really one of his masterpieces."
"Yuri Olesha's book The Three Fat Men is fantastic, fabulous, abounding in extraordinary transformation and fascinating happenings."
-Literaturnaya Gazeta-

"There was something Beethovenian in Yuri Olesha, even in his voice. His eyes discovered many marvelous, impressive things around him, and he wrote about them briefly, precisely and excellently.
-Konstantin Paustovsky-

Appraise Out Of Books The Three Fat Men

Детская книжка, которая не кажется детской ребенку и не кажется взрослой взрослому. Застряла между. Прочитал после просмотра первого эпизода у БДТ. Там это было сплошная фантастика. Понравился рваный стиль повествования, скачками и забегая одной историей на другую. Мне бы больше понравилось, увеличь ее в два раза и раскрой всех героев. Получилась скомканной.

Just finished reading it for my younger son. Had read it to my elder son a few years back. These, added to the umpteen times I had read it in my childhood, prove how fascinating the book is.I just love the attention to the tiny details. Yuri Olesha is actually a 'God of small things in the bigger picture' cos the bigger picture is painted beautifully too. One can really visualise each event in the story, even without illustrations.The story itself is a tale of standing up for our rights &

It's funny, if somewhat scary, how when you're a kid you don't really see even explicit political propaganda in your favorite books. When I was five, or seven, or whatever I was when I read The Three Fat Men for the first time, it was, to me, a book about brave little dancer Suok and romantic Heir Tutti and smart Doctor Gaspar. Now it is unmistakably a book about Revolution and Class Struggle, its real main characters.What remains unchanged though is that this tale is written extremely well.

When I was younger I loved this book, but I read it again as an adult and I understood that it's communist propaganda, and behind the funny characters lie some miserable principles.

Като говорим за пропаганда в най-чист вид, предназначен за подрастващите и гъбкопопивателни умове на децата ни, няма как да не сетя първо за Носов, и след това веднага за Олеша, с неговата кратка и привидно почти забавна повест, за свалянето от власт на тримата шишковци едри фабриканти, производители на въглища, желязо и жито, от смелия народ развял червени знамена, искащ равенство и братство, и еднакви възможности и обществени блага за всички. Но да се спъна в плосък камък дано, ако съм

It was an audio version so don't judge me!Oh! Wow! How I love Russian literature, my God! I really like the representation of conventional Russian characters often portraid by ordinary citizens. The story is set in a fictional country where three fat men rule everything. The painted dictatorship that deprives people from almost everything and makes them suffer calls for the long waited phenomenon what is revolution. While many of the characters either good or bad, they all have an aim in the

The book length can make it as a long fairy tale or a short novel (not a real novel thought), it's still just a book for children. Sure it has some twists and the plots are quite compelling, but the storyline is predictable, you can also find some mishaps, some text are wordy, and the illustrations could have been done better. However, should't live up too much for a children book away, since not everything is The Petite Prince, though.
