forgotten superstars

[Alina Israeli]

Asadov is still immensely popular.

For comparison, Google search:

59,200 for "Осип Мандельштам"
53,200 for "Эдуард Асадов"


Boris Polevoj still remains a staple of youth reading, particular for boys.


Gladilin also could hardly be considered among the forgotten:

Demian Bednyj is not the popular star of his time but also not 
forgotten. On Google 42,600 for "Демьян Бедный"
