    The Sketch about the Russial writer-billionaire and about so-called Russial literature

  The Sketch about the Russial writer-billionaire and about so-called Russial literature
  
  
  Thoughts from Joan Rowling involuntarily pass to Michelle Obama. About J. K. Rowling, we briefly, but wrote in the other miniatures. She is a citizen of the UK.
  
  Michelle Obama is an U.S. citizen.
  
  Perhaps it is advisable to write about other authors from the "Western" world... But the information environment is built such a way that not much information about famous authors and their financial success comes at the disposal of the "ordinary" Russial [Russia-located] reader.
  
  Well...
  
  '4 January 2019... Nielsen BookScan monitors UK book sales and says 190.9 million books were sold last year, creating a total revenue of 1.63 billion pounds.
  
  This was an increase on the amount of books sold in 2017, with an extra 627,000 sold.' (https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-46759799)
  
  '1 March 2017... Former US President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have agreed a book deal with Penguin Random House.
  
  "The company has acquired world publication rights for two books, to be written by President and Mrs Obama respectively," the publisher said.
  
  Titles and other details have not been disclosed but the deal is believed to be worth over $60m (48m pounds).' (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39124239)
  
  Thoughts smoothly move to Ivan Golunov.
  
  About Ivan Golunov, we also wrote, and even we assumed that he could publish a book about Vyacheslav Volodin (the Chairman of the State Duma) in the series "The Life of Remarkable People".
  
  But will such a book, even if it will be written and published, bring any noticeable money to Ivan Golunov?
  
  I doubt...
  
  Moreover, personally at me the assumption prevails that will be more both an energy expenses, and a concern, than monetary receipts ...
  
  Why a such opinion?
  
  And we also wrote about the reasons of distress of the Russial [Russia-located] literature. In any case, about such reason as large-scale crash of the national book market.
  
  Let's say Ivan Golunov is a world famous personality. And people all over the world want to read his book.
  
  But, in order to quickly write and publish a book, you need assistants, agents, publishers.
  
  If you look with a magnifying glass, you can see someone. But in General, what to do in the ruined market? By and large, there are no such specialists.
  
  But, even if the book is published, then how to sell it? The system of sales of books also, by and large, is destroyed ... To sell abroad? There to sell? But a publishing houses with experience, business links, with traditions, with material interest, are needed. Where are they?.
  
  Did not you accidentally notice the queue to Ivan Golunov?
  
  Oh, no! I'm not talking about journalists wanting to ask questions....
  
  I about representatives of publishing houses! Because Golunov is beneficial, Golunov is money, Golunov is a huge advertising rent... Millions, billions...
  
  For a consolation I will mention one fact.
  
  "The literary critic Pavel Basinsky during the ceremony [rewardings with the State award in the field of literature and art on June 12, 2019] noted that his books "can not be written if not daily and laborious work of many people, the whole collectives". He, in particular, expressed the words of gratitude to collectives of the memorial estate "Yasnaya Polyana", Leo Tolstoy's museum in Moscow, to the staff of Institute of the world literature, Literary institute of name of Maxim Gorky and also the editorial office of Rossiyskaya Gazeta where Basinsky works nearly 15 years." (https://tass.ru/kultura/6542852)
  
  Both rewarding with the State premium and the speech draw positive attention to themselves, - even we read books by dear Pavel Basinsky and quoted, - but somehow there is not enough courage to ask - and what royalties are received by dear Pavel Basinsky (the author, we will add, from among those who were published in 'The Life of Remarkable People' series)?
  
  It remains to look at the photos of the world-famous Ivan Golunov...
  
  Happiness at everyone the, personal, individual... And money, income, revenues, - different, miscellaneous...
