The legendary Munchausen, described by Grigory Gorin, is quite different from the well-known classical literary image. He is a dreamer and a nonconformist. His whole life is the life of a genius, arranged in such a way as not to be like everyone else. It is important for Munchausen to exist in a stormy and significant activity. Unfortunately, almost no one can understand and accept it. For most, he is crazy, constantly giving reason for ridicule. For his family, he is a burden, the son does not love him, because the "glory" of his father casts a shadow on him too ... Munchausen is paradoxical, because with all his fables and fantasies, he turns out to be the most truthful and decent person. Ready to follow the principle, even to their own detriment.
