writers who were under fire in 1963 gradually reappeared in print, and poetry readings were resumed, but by no means onthe same scale as before. Whatever the outcome of the campaign, the force and character of the attack on Voznesenskii,and other writers, were bound to be profoundly wounding. Voznesenskii was at first sent into virtual exile (it was announcedthat he was spending his time in factories near Vladimir), and for many months he wandered about the country. New timeshave brought new challenges, but nowadays Voznesenskii's readers, as well as many poets around the world, continue toappreciate his examination of universal issues like morality, evil, spirituality, freedom, the role of technology in society, andpossibilities of a poetic language. One of the most famous American poets Robert Lowell wrote: "Voznesenskii came to uswith the care-free vitality of the 20s and Apollinaire, surrealism trickles down his fingers. He is full of novelty, humor, itdawns up on him. He is a Master who has courage and inspiration to be himself". "Time" magazine named Voznesenskii thegreatest living Russian poet. He does his poetry readings in many cities all over the world. During the Days of Triumph inParis in 1996, "Le Nouvel Observateour" called him "the greatest poet of our time". For years he maintained friendlyrelationships with many prominent Russian and Western artists, political and cultural figures, including Allen Ginsberg,Arthur Miller, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Mstislav Rostropovich, Maiia Plisetskaia, and others. Not long ado shorthandrecords of his conversations with Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre were published. Critics and scholars around theworld continue to write about Voznesenskii. An online subject search in the "MLA Bibliography" in January 2003 produced69 entries, in the following languages: Bulgarian, Dutch, English, French, German, Latvian, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish.Voznesenskii is so renowned in Russia that a search on the Russian Google on January 24, 2003 produced 9,160 hits,including the site of a very active fan club (http://www.avos111.narod.ru). In his capacity as Vice-President of the RussianPEN Center, Voznesenskii is active in the promotion of young poets' readings. He has also put lot of effort in creatingPasternak's museum in Peredelkino. Voznesenskii is still writing, creating art and giving readings to large, appreciativeaudiences.
