По ту сторону
"Золотыми ребятами сорок первого года" назвал военное поколение поэт-фронтовик С.Наровчатов. "Если пометить, как на мишени, все просвистевшие вокруг пули, осколки, все мины, бомбы, снаряды, то с какой заколдованной четкостью вырисовывалась бы в пробитом воздухе моя уцелевшая фигура", - спустя годы напишет в своей автобиографии Даниил Гранин. Он уцелел как будто специально для того, чтобы в русской прозе двадцатого века остались романы "Иду на грозу", "Бегство в Россию", повести "Наш комбат", "Эта странная жизнь" и "Зубр", "Блокадная книга", эссе "Священный дар" и "Страх", а уже в веке двадцать первом - повесть "По ту сторону", задуманная еще в конце шестидесятых, и книга "Изменчивые тени", по страницам которой привольно гуляет сквозняк времени...
Вошедшие в этот сборник рассказы и повести принадлежат к лучшим страницам русской "лейтенантской прозы", честной, простой и пронзительной. И теперь, размышляя уже о нынешних войнах, невозможно не учитывать опыт Даниила Гранина, писателя, упрямого гуманиста, одного из поколения "золотых ребят сорок первого года".

Daniil Alexandrovich Granin (born Daniil Alexandrovich German) was an author born in the former Soviet Union. He started writing in the 1930s when he was still an engineering student at the Leningrad Polytechnical Institute. After completing his graduation Granin began working as a senior engineer at an energy laboratory and soon after the war broke out, he volunteered as a soldier.
One of the first widely praised works of Granin was a short story about graduate students, titled Second Varient. It was published in the journal Zvezda in 1949. Granin continued to study engineering and working as a technical writer until success knocked on the door in the form of Those Who Seek; a novel inspired from his life as an engineer. The book talked about the overly bureaucratic Soviet system which tended to stifle new ideas.
Granin has worked as a board member in the Leningrad Union of Writers and is a winner of many medals and honors including the State Prize for Literature in 1978.
