Abstract
The article deals with the problematics and poetics of V.O. Avchenko's book "Red Sky. Non-fictional stories about the earth, fire and man flying". The author's focus on the life of the Far East as a land of unusual, rich in 143 talents and peculiar stories, but we can not ignore the expansion of artistic space: the scope of the writer's interests includes the life of the USSR as a whole, considered through the prism of the history of aeronautics.
