Kronid Upholsterers.

The fate of many Kuban writers was the Great Patriotic War. This review reflects only a small circle of writers who fought at the front. War is a long test of a person at the limit of his strength, of all human capabilities. Each of the Kuban writers had his own war, his own front. Everyone knows their truth about the war and shares it with the new generation. But their books are not only about the war - they are about human life, about time, about themselves, about others.

Difficult front-line roads were passed by Kuban writers:

Oboishchikov Kronid Alexandrovich,

Yuri Abdashev was born on November 27, 1923 in Harbin in Manchuria. At that time, Harbin was the spiritual center of the Russian emigration in the East. This is a kind of Russian city located on the territory of another country. Yura's father served on the Chinese Eastern Railway (CER). Children's world of the writer according to his

his own memories was beautiful and seemed unshakable. But after the CER was sold in 1936, the Abdashev family returned to Russia. A year later, my father was arrested and shot, my mother was exiled to the Karaganda camps for 10 years. Both would be rehabilitated in 1957. Thirteen-year-old Yura was assigned to the Verkhotursk closed labor colony in the Northern Urals. After school, Yuri Abdashev entered the English department of the Faculty of Foreign Languages ​​of the Kalinin Pedagogical Institute. But the outbreak of war disrupted his plans. From the student audience, Abdashev stepped into the trenches and trenches.

In early October 1941, he volunteered for the front, took part in the winter offensive near Moscow. The battle near Moscow inscribed its pages in the history of the Great Patriotic War. The battle of Moscow thwarted Hitler's plans for a blitzkrieg. After graduating from the artillery school in 1942, Abdashev was assigned to the Caucasus. He commanded a platoon, and then a battery in an anti-tank fighter regiment, which liberated the Kuban from Nazi invaders.

During the war, Yuri Abdashev was seriously wounded twice. He received the first wound near Smolensk, the second, commanding a forty-five battery under Art. Krymskaya in 1943. He was awarded two Orders of the Patriotic War of the 1st degree and combat medals.

Writers who went through the war, like no other, know how to appreciate peace and fight for it. The military stories "Triple Barrier" and "Far from the War" were published in the magazine "Youth". In Yuri Abdashev's story "Far from War" you meet living, human characters. The work is dedicated to young soldiers, cadets of a military school. Before our eyes, the boys are turning into officers. Everyone learns to evaluate himself, his actions by the measure of war. None of these guys knows what is predetermined for them tomorrow by the fate of the front, although she has already ordered: life - one, death - the other.

The story "Triple Barrier" is also about the Great Patriotic War. Events take place in the mountains of the Caucasus. Three unfired soldiers in the difficult year of 1942 were left as a barrier on a high mountain pass. The purpose of the barrier is not to let enemy scouts and saboteurs through the narrow shepherd's path. An ordinary episode of the war, but for three soldiers it was a great test of fortitude. The pass becomes for the fighters not only a point on the map, this is the height that a person has, it can only be once in a lifetime. They died one by one, honestly fulfilling their soldier's duty.

Ivan Belyakov was born on December 8 back in 1915 of the last century in the village of Mokry Maidan, Gorky Region. When the Great Patriotic War began, Ivan was a third-year student at the Literary Institute named after him in Moscow.

Without hesitation, Ivan Belyakov goes to the front. These were the years of trials for the whole country, these were the years of trials for the young poet, who went from an ordinary soldier to an officer, first at the headquarters of the 49th Rifle Corps, then, after being wounded, at the restoration work in the railway troops. Wherever the war threw Ivan Belyakov - company technician, senior technician of the battalion, correspondent of the newspaper "Military Railwayman", - the love of poetry, the desire to create, did not leave him.

After the end of the bloody war, the military officer began to write kind, bright books for children about "blue-eyed boys" and cheerful girls. He wanted them to know about the dead peers who never had time to become adults. So there were poems about the Kuban Cossack Petya Chikildin from the famous detachment of Kochubey, about Kolya Pobirashko, a young scout from the village of Shabelsky. Belyakov managed to show in the little heroes an adult understanding of courage and courage in the name of the Motherland.

In 1970, the Krasnodar book publishing house published a book of poems by I. Belyakov "Eternal Youth". In it, he spoke about the pioneers and Komsomol members who died in the battles for their homeland on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War.

In the book "Burn, bonfire!" two poems. The poem "The Very First" is dedicated to test pilot Grigory Bakhchivandzhi from the village of Brinkovskaya. It was he who was entrusted with testing the first interceptor jet fighter that opened new era in aviation history. Grigory Bakhchivandzhi has already shown his skills as a fighter pilot in the first months of the war, more than one fascist plane was shot down on his account.

Another poem, “A Word about a Mother,” is dedicated to a Russian woman, a Kuban collective farmer, Epistinia Fedorovna Stepanova, who lost nine sons in the war. The poet draws a steadfast, courageous character and wants "every son and every grandson" to know about this feat.

An excerpt from the poem was published in the Peasant Woman magazine in 1971. For this work, the poet was awarded a literary prize. The oratorio by the composer N. Khlopkov was written on the text of "Words about the Mother".

At the graduation party, young Barabbas reads his farewell lyric poems. He becomes a fighter of the regional fighter battalion, retreating from the village last, in the foothills of the Caucasus, he takes a baptism of fire near the village of Khadyzhenskaya, in the valley of the Pshish River. “I confess that more than anything in the world - in my freedom-loving character, which I inherited from a Cossack family - I was afraid of fascist captivity. Twice unharmed came out of the iron environment, when only a few remained alive. It burned, was covered with earth from an exploding bomb ... "

In the battle for the Caucasus, the young poet, in the rank of an ordinary infantry shooter and gunner of company mortars, in the spring of 1943, takes part in the breakthrough of the enemy Blue Line, in the assault on the height of the Hill of Heroes. Wounds, hospital and again - the front: fighting for the liberation of Novorossiysk, Ukraine, Belarus, Poland. As a twenty-year-old sergeant in May 1945, the young poet Barabbas left his first autograph on the wall of the Reichstag, in defeated enemy Berlin. Of course, the events of the war do not leave I. Barabbas indifferent, his poems are published, sink into the soul of readers, and are remembered for their lyricism.

Wheels rattled, wagons creaked uneasily.

Spring returned to their native Cossack lands.

The planet shook. On the roof of a green caravan

My soldier's youth rushed around the world.

With the sharp gaze of a poet and warrior, Ivan Barabbas saw the war in all its manifestations. Here, repelling a tank attack, "soldiers sank to the bottom, clutching grenades in their sleeves ... some with a yellow speck of a medal, some with a copper bullet in their heads." And here is a short story about a boy who would certainly become a wonderful artist. But it didn't have to. The guy grabbed the enemy tank ...

Pyotr Karpovich Ignatov lived a great life. There was a lot in it - the Bolshevik underground, exile, participation in the formation of the Red Guard detachments, in the ranks of the workers' militia

Ignatov fights bandits. In 1940, Pyotr Karpovich was appointed deputy director of the Krasnodar Institute of Chemical Technology. And then the war began.

In August 1942, the Nazis approached Krasnodar, and the threat of occupation loomed over the Kuban. 86 partisan detachments were organized in the region. also received the task of creating a partisan detachment of miners to fight the Nazis. Under the name "Dad", he was appointed commander of this detachment.

On one of the tasks, when mining railway the sons of Ignatov died heroically. In 1943, by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, the brothers Evgeny and Geny Ignatov were posthumously awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. The desire to tell about the feat of their children, their fellow partisans, all those who did not bow their heads before the hated enemy, made me take up the pen. His books - "The Life of a Simple Man", "Notes of a Partisan", "Our Sons", "Brothers - Heroes", "Underground of Krasnodar" - are original notes of a person who has lived a lot, seen, suffered. At the same time, this is not a memoir, but literary works, in which the feat of many participants in the partisan people's war is summarized and captured.

In "Notes of a Partisan" guerrilla war with its dangers, risk is depicted in the nobility of exploits and the fascination of adventures. The atmosphere of the forests in the Kuban foothills is accurately conveyed.

came to literature from the Great Patriotic War and brought with him the high and harsh truth about young men who stepped into the flames of the fight against fascism right from school

benches. The Great Patriotic War found him in the army. Already in June 1941, Lieutenant Kasparov took part in the battles with the Nazis. 1941 was the most tragic period of the war. Kasparov also had to go through a lot. He was wounded, shell-shocked, captured, escaped. He fought with the Nazis in a partisan detachment, returned to the army again, commanded a mortar unit, and served in regimental intelligence.

When, after the hospital, he returned to his native Armavir, his chest was decorated with military awards: the Order of the Red Star, medals "For Courage", "For the Capture of Warsaw" and others.

Boris Kasparov devoted his first stories "The End of Nairi", "The Ruby Ring", "Towards the Sun" to military topics. They were published in the Soviet Warrior magazine. These and other publications he submitted to the competition at the Literary Institute. A. M. Gorky, where he entered in 1949.

Since 1958, one after another, his books have been published: “On the West Bank”, “Dürer’s Copy”, “Twelve Months”, “Ashes and Sand”, “Rhapsody of Liszt”, “Stars Shine for All”, which were included in circle of children's reading. In these stories, B. Kasparov showed himself as a master of a sharp plot, able to interest the reader. But the detective story is not the most important thing in Kasparov's work. The writer manifests himself as a person who "knows how to conduct a sincere conversation with the reader, raising sharp moral questions." His stories are permeated with ardent love for the Motherland, he wrote about brave, kind and courageous people, true patriots of their Motherland.

This direction in the writer's work was clearly manifested in his plays "Memory", "Seventh Day", "Dragon's Teeth". In the play "Seventh Day" B. Kasparov spoke about the most difficult first days of the war. His plays were successful in the Armavir and Krasnodar drama theaters. He made an authorized translation into Russian of the novel by the Adyghe writer Iskhak Mashbash “The Mourned Are Not Expected”.

"Copy of Dürer" is perhaps the most famous work B. Kasparov. The story is written so vividly and talentedly that the events described in it are perceived as really happening. In May 1945, in the first days after the war, a young Red Army officer was appointed assistant commandant in a small German town to help the locals establish a peaceful life. But an unpleasant event occurs: the manager of the Grunberg estate shot himself. This man survived the fascist regime, was loyal to the Soviet government and suddenly shot himself when the city was liberated from the Nazis. "Murder or suicide?" - the senior lieutenant asks himself a question and begins his own investigation. The mysterious events associated with a copy of the painting by Albrecht Dürer, the great German Renaissance painter, cannot but captivate the reader. The plot of the book resonates with the real story of the rescue of paintings from the Dresden Gallery and other treasures of world art by Soviet soldiers.

The writer's childhood and early youth were spent in the village of Bogorodskaya Repyevka and in his native city of Ulyanovsk, where he was born on December 30, 1924. The poetic world of Nikolai Krasno

wa determined early. The rural childish freemen, and the charm of the native Volga town, ancient Simbirsk, with its brilliant literary traditions since Pushkin's time, with the Karamzin Library - the "Palace of the Book", which became a second home to the young poet from the age of 12, remained forever in the soul. The first literary publication was at this age - poems in the newspaper "Be Prepared!", A little later - in "Pionerskaya Pravda". And he had a favorite teacher in literature - Vera Petrovna Yudina. She instilled in him a great love for Pushkin, from the fifth grade she collected leaflets with the “test of the pen” of her sponsor, promising to “publish Kolya Krasnov’s poems after graduating from high school as a separate book.” But... as we say now, tomorrow there was a war.

In 1943, after graduating from school, N. Krasnov worked at a defense plant as a toolmaker, in the same year he became a soldier. He fought on the Leningrad front, was seriously wounded during the assault on Vyborg. Nikolai Krasnov has military awards: the Order of the Patriotic War of the 1st degree, the medal "For Courage" and others.

War for Nikolai Krasnov is a soldier's thorny roads. The front, offensive battles, wounds, hospitals... Before his eyes appeared a picture of the life of our people fighting against fascism. “I was a drop of that big sea,” he later wrote. The feat of the people during the Great Patriotic War became the main theme in his work. The author admits in his interviews that no matter how many years have passed since then, the front-line events are as fresh in memory as if it were yesterday. Nikolai Stepanovich tells about an amazing incident that influenced his fate: “After the battle, the commander of a machine-gun company saw among the dead soldiers very similar to me. And my machine gunner friends confirmed it was me. And I stood at the mass grave, where my name was on the list of the dead. I knew some of those buried here... And I cry talking about them all, about that unknown boy who was mistakenly buried under my name. Like any soldier, someone's son, brother or loved one. In my imagination, I often hear his mother, his fiancee, crying, and my heart shrinks from unbearable pain.

The impressions of the war time became the main spiritual wealth of the writer. And, apparently, it is no coincidence that the classic of Russian literature was the first to appreciate the poetry of Nikolai Krasnov. In 1947, he presented a poetic selection of a young writer with a brief preface in the Literary Gazette, and contributed to his admission to the Writers' Union of Russia. And soon a personal meeting with Alexander Trifonovich took place. In one of N. Krasnov's books there are wonderful words about the influence of this meeting on his work. “I, like a bird before a long journey, was waiting for a fair wind. And waited. And he grabbed me."

In one of his poems, Nikolai Krasnov recalls his old letters scattered all over the world, and "to friends who did not come from the war, and to his beloved, who went to another" ...

I won't take away a word.

I can only add

And again

I won't lie a single line...

These words can rightfully be attributed to the entire work of the poet and prose writer Krasnov. Each of his poems, each story is a kind of letter to the reader, unsophisticated and confidential. Here nothing is invented, everything comes from the heart, everything is about the experienced, about the suffering. The memory of the war, love for people, native places, for everything pure and beautiful. Reading his works, we feel a man of great soul, sincere and kind. Life, as it is, looks from each of its pages.

Kronid upholsterers flew forty-one sorties in total. Then, from 1944 until the end of the war, as a squadron navigator, he overtakes aircraft from Siberian and Transcaucasian airfields to active combat regiments of the Baltic and Northern fleets. He was awarded three orders and fifteen medals, including one English.

In 1960, K. Oboyshchikov retired with the rank of major of the Far East, where he served as a senior navigator for guidance of an air defense fighter aircraft. There, for the interception of an American spy plane "Lockheed-U-2", by order of the commander of the air defense air defense marshal, he was awarded a valuable gift.

The first poem of the eighth-grader Kronid Oboyshchikov "The death of the stratospheric balloon" was published in the newspaper "Armavir Commune" in 1936.

Native land, you are all on this map -

Blue lakes, roads and ridges.

I left the school desk to fly,

To see you from above.

Combat aviation, the blue expanse of heaven became both life and poetry for him. His hero knows his place in the war. He understands that without him it is impossible to fight:

There is non-flying weather,

And the Stavka, nervously, waits,

And infantry dug into the ground

They won't attack without us.

Military routes led him over Kiev, and over the Sula River, and over Leningrad, and over the Barents Sea, and over the Baltic states. Like other front-line poets, K. Oboyshchikov more than once refers to the image of a soldier's mother. They, mothers, had the most bitter fate - to see off their sons to the war and receive funerals.

When friends are in a brotherly grave

We had to bury

We swore a soldier's oath

Don't forget their mothers.

He writes "A Word to the Mother", dedicating it to Matryona Konstantinovna Zikran, the mother of the Hero of the Soviet Union, who died a heroic death; writes a poem "Mother" - in memory of Epistinia Fedorovna Stepanova.

This year is the year of the 65th anniversary of the great Victory. And today, at the commemorative obelisks and memorials, next to the veterans, the younger generation, literary heroes, flesh of the flesh of the living and the dead, stand in an invisible ranks.

Georgy Vladimirovich Sokolov was born on December 3, 1911 in the village of Kochkar, Chelyabinsk Region. In 1930, on a Komsomol voucher, he left for the construction of the Magnitogorsk Metal

lurgical plant. Since the first days of the Great Patriotic War, he has been in the army. He was a unit commissar, commander of a reconnaissance company, worked in the editorial offices of front-line newspapers.

Memories of heroic battles in Malaya Zemlya, of living and dead comrades-in-arms formed the basis of the book “We are from Malaya Zemlya”, which was repeatedly reprinted in our country and abroad. This is a collection of documentary

nyh novels. More than two hundred names of heroes are named in them. Everything that the paratroopers experienced, Sokolov also survived. Not by hearsay, not by archival data, the author recognized the full of dangers of a military life.

He participated in attacks and night searches, in hand-to-hand combat and raids behind enemy lines. On Malaya Zemlya he received two wounds, was shell-shocked. A separate company of scouts, commanded by Captain Sokolov, landed on Myskhako following the detachment of Major Caesar Kunikov, and in the first month of fighting alone destroyed more than a hundred Nazis, brought up to two dozen prisoners. By the way, on Sokolov's personal account there are fifty-six fascist soldiers and officers who were destroyed by him in hand-to-hand fights during two and a half years of work in intelligence - first as a commissar, then as a commander of a separate reconnaissance company. Until the very end of the heroic epic, all seven long months of combat suffering, Sokolov was on Malaya Zemlya. Before his eyes, events took place that are not forgotten, before his eyes, the paratroopers performed feats that entered the annals of the Patriotic War.

After the liberation of Novorossiysk, the landing units, hardened on Malaya Zemlya, had to create bridgeheads in the Crimea, fight for Sevastopol and in the Carpathians, on the Vistula, on the Oder and Spree, storm Berlin, and liberate Prague. And Sokolov took part in these battles.

During the war years, Sokolov did not dream of writing. He did keep some records. But during the September assault on the Novorossiysk port, the boat on which he was located was hit and sank. Sokolov swam out, and his duffel bag with notebooks went to the bottom. However, after the war, he wanted to talk about his experiences, and he took up the pen. The memory has preserved a lot, the sorrows and joys of front-line life. In 1949, the first edition of his book "Small Earth" was published. Written in the wake of recent events, it won over with its truthfulness, love for friends and comrades. The author was admitted to the Writers' Union.

Throughout his creative life, while working on "Little Land", Georgy Sokolov simultaneously created his main book - the novel "Sevastopol is waiting for us." The novel truthfully and impressively describes the last days of the defense of Sevastopol, the tragedy of those who remained in the trenches and on the banks of Chersonese after the fleet finally left its base. All seems to be lost. However, this is not the case. The epilogue of the Sevastopol tragedy became a prologue to the battles in the Novorossiysk region in 1942-1943, to the battles on Malaya Zemlya, on Taman, to the expulsion of the Nazis from the Kuban, from the entire North Caucasus. Participating in these battles, the heroes of the novel understand that there is no other way, that they need to go through all this painful path with inevitable losses and losses in order to return to Sevastopol.

Georgy Sokolov himself went this way, first from Sevastopol to Novorossiysk, then from Novorossiysk to Sevastopol and further - to the Carpathians, through the Vistula and Oder - to the Spree and Vltava.

Native land, the people do not forget their sons and daughters who died for the Fatherland. Reading and rereading the novel “Sevastopol awaits us”, we, first of all, note that it captures the historical feat of the people, the glory of which will not fade for centuries.
