Vasil Bykov Biography

A hundred years ago, a famous Belarusian writer Vasily Bykov was born in the village of Bychiki, Lieutenant Fate Vasil Bykov, a hundred years ago, on June 19, in a small village of Bychki, the famous Belarusian writer Vasil Vladimirovich Bykov was born now. An experienced at the age of 17 will become the shock that will affect Bykov’s work. A lot in his childhood and youthful years took place thanks to a happy coincidence.

The end of the Polish war also affected the bulls, they were two kilometers from the border with Poland. Mother Anna Grigoryevna was originally from a neighboring village of Zaulok, which now ended up on the Polish side of the border. In the light of the Civil War, she lost her first husband, who went to Petrograd and sunk into obscurity, only an exotic clothing for bulls - a jerk - remained from him.

According to the writer, "his mother was waiting for him for almost five years, and then, walking on foot in Polotsk to bow to St. Euphrosyne Polotskaya, she married her neighbor - the widow of Vladimir Bykov." Childhood in a picturesque lake region found a distant approach to the writer's fate among young Vasil: the boy passionately loved to read and then preserved this passion even at the front.

The village guy who had never seen a real city, I was shocked by Polotsk, everything in it was unusual for me. Narrow, crooked, paved evidence, shops from the school, the poor peasant son had to leave, before the war he will return to Vitebsk and will master construction craft at the Babric Chief Learning School. It was the reason for the first Bykov’s first long journey through Belarus.

The young Vitebsk builders were sent to the Ukrainian shester, there, three days before the war, Vasil was seventeen years old. Bykov and his comrades were attracted to digging trenches and ditches, then in unbearable heat they began to move east. Vasil eventually accidentally lagged behind his: “In Belgorod, I decided to buy fruit tea because of this behind the column, and then at all lost it.

While running through the streets clogged with troops, night came. I went into a house in a dilapidated bomb and, weary, fell asleep. I woke me up patrols. They were taken to the commandant's office. There is a night interrogation: who is it? Searched, selected the documents. We found a map in my bag - a sheet torn from the textbook, on which I, the letter, noted the situation on the fronts.

This sheet almost destroyed me. ” In the summer of the year, such a “saboteur” could well have shot without unnecessary ceremonies. Bykov nearly became “forever seventeen years old,” but a truly happy case helped: “Two came-a young in a blue cap and an elderly mustachioed Red Army man with a rifle. The mustachioed commanded me: “To the exit! I poorly remember how we came out from under the hanging vault, how, passing through the prayed courtyard and wrapping around the corner of the stone building, we found ourselves on the protruded garden beds.

There, under an old plank fence, I saw in nettles long legs in highly wound windings. And he could not stand it - tears flowed out of his eyes. The Red Army man stopped, apparently surprised by my silent cry, and suddenly threw: “Run, kid! And he really shot. But into the air. I understood this on the run, feeling that he was alive, and not daring even to turn out for a moment.

” The miraculous deliverance from imminent death experienced at the age of 17 will be the shock that will affect Bykov’s artistic work. Vasil Bykov’s works firmly entered the best examples of large literature about the Great Patriotic War after Belgorod history to the lieutenants will be much easier for him. In the summer of the year, Vasil will first fall into the reserve regiment, and in early September - to the Saratov Infantry School.
