The biography of fragments is briefly
Father - the railway worker died at the front in the year liberating Zaporozhye. Mother is an illiterate peasant woman who brought up her son alone. Seven -year -old Victor experienced all the hardships of half -starved military childhood, living in the city of Novosibirsk. From a year, he studies at the Historical and Philology Faculty of the Krasnodar Pedagogical Institute, and then teaches for several years in the Anapa district.
The years of study and work in the rural outback were a time of creative maturation. His first story “Bryanski”, sent to the New World magazine himself, was published in the year, and immediately made a young writer known throughout the country. It was a literary debut of Likhonosov. The entry into the large literature of Viktor Likhonosov was swift. In the same year, two books of Viktor Likhonosov were published: “Evenings” and “There will be something.” In the year, a collection of stories “Voice in Silence” with the preface of Yuri Kazakov was published: “...
almost all the heroes of Likhonosov are wanderers in the highest sense of the word. They are carried away by longing for beauty ... Everything that he wrote is written freshly, musically, very accurately, and everything is imbued with sharp, even some enthusiastic-typical love for a person ... The desire for perfection can be seen in every line written by all the Likhonosov. And one more thing: in all the stories of Likhonosov, an approach to something big, the tense searches of that main, the most important thing that every writer should write about.
Something will be ... ". Yuri Kazakov introduced Likhonosov in absentia and with writers from emigration - B. Zaitsev and G. Adamovich with them the writer corresponded to their death, becoming for this reason the “disadvantageous”, with this the study of the frantic life of the Russian foreign countries began. The letters of Adamovich from Paris contain a lot of deep and subtle remarks about the prose of Likhonosov: “I not only liked your book“ Voice in Silence ”, no: I am fascinated by it ...
There is not a single fake word in the book. This does not often happen, and, in my opinion, this is the most important, that is, the lack of fiction in the bad sense of this concept. And in general, in your book-life with all mystery, charm, sadness, what is in life ... From each of your page it blows something "nimble-torn, woeful and beautiful." You have a rare sense of the Russian past, nature, people, the whole of Russia in general ...
It seems to me that you must write a big thing-about everything and nothing like life itself, this is your warehouse, your feature, your gift: you read-and if nothing happens until you understand that something is much more important than ordinary incidents ... And by the way, this genre is “about everything and nothing”, in essence, now it is very compliance with all kinds of compliance with all kinds of forgotten, forgotten for all sorts of people Current affairs, questions and “problems” hate this word!
There is only one problem - "life and death." In the year, in the “New Russian Word” the story of Likhonosov “for a long memory” and an article about him the best critic of Russian emigration G. And in the year the book “Clean Eyes” with the preface by Viktor Astafyev was published. The works of V. Likhonosov are translated in Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Germany, Czech, Slovak, French, English.
Traveling along the Yeseninsky, Lermontov and Pushkin places published a cycle of novelties “I love you Light” G. These works caused a negative attitude of critics of various literary directions. The writer was reproached for the treason to the clan of the "rusticians", and in the excessive chanting of old Russia, the nobility. Since the year, Likhonosov is falling silent for ten years, has been working on his main novel about the fate of the Russian Cossacks: “Unwritten memories.
Our little Paris, ”which he finished only in the year. This novel is built on a large historical material and covering events in the Kuban, in Petrograd, Paris, on the fronts of the "German" and civil wars for a year. The writer walks around the villages, talks with the Cossacks -Kolkhotniks, with local local historians, studies documents in archives, corresponds with Russian emigration, “collects words” - fragments of the former, comprehending the tragedy of the Kuban land that suffered from the Bolshevik terror and its people.
There was a year - a period of large, deep changes in all areas of life of Soviet society - the period of perestroika. Like almost all his close-minded writers, the perestroika did not accept the perestroika, and published a book of anti-pivotive journalism “Toska-Kruchin” by Viktor Likhonosov with his elegic, lyrical, complete romanticism directly to rustic prose and you can’t react, but his heroes, as a rule, from a simple people, and thoughts and tenders and teas They are coincided with the moral imperatives of the Writers-Worshipers.
However, the very problem of the small homeland Viktor Likhonosov was one of the first. Lives in Krasnodar. An amazing, singing and musical language, the height of feelings, deed, behavior, lyricism and epic scope - without these qualities it is impossible to imagine the prose of a wonderful writer who admitted: “Literature is all my happiness! Gorky G. Sholokhov; - Order "Sign of Honor" G.Became the main laureate of the Great Literary Prize of Russia Viktor Ivanovich Likhonosov received a reward in the nomination for the good of Russia for an outstanding contribution to the development of Russian literature.
