Putin and Coelho found a common language
In the suburban residence of the Russian president in Novo-Ogarevo on the eve of a meeting of Vladimir Putin and brailskogo writer Paulo Coelho.
Before the meeting, Russian President read the two works Coelho - "The Alchemist" and "Daybreakers." In this novel "Veronika Decides to Die" and "At the Rio Piedra I sat down and cried," Putin did not read because he was concerned about the title.
"The rest he gave to colleagues. There names are very disturbing," - said the president.
In a conversation with a famous writer, Putin said that "the soul of Brazilian and Russian people is something that unites us."
"Therefore, what you write as you write, so close to the heart of the Russian people, so falls into the Russian heart" - said the president.
The writer thanked Putin for the warm words, saying in Russian "thank you". Finally Paulo Coelho gave Putin two copies of "Diary of a Magus" in Russian for the daughters of the president, according to Radio Mayak.
