Место для памятника

Rate this book
Шесть десятилетий Даниил Гранин говорит своей прозой с "городом и миром". По крайней мере дважды он становился истинным властителем умов: в пятидесятых - шестидесятых, когда появились романы "Искатели", "Иду на грозу", и в восьмидесятые, после выхода романа "Картина", повести "Зубр", "Блокадной книги". Его "Листопад" (2008) написан прозой простой и свежей, как выстиранная в проточной воде и высушенная на солнце рубашка из холстины.

Даниил Гранин - неотъемлемая часть культурного пространства страны и Петербурга. Сегодня его голос не просто слышен - к нему прислушиваются: явление почти невероятное в обществе, где "идея жизни сузилась до собственного кармана".

В настоящий сборник вошли рассказы, повести и эссе разных лет: "Повесть об одном учёном и одном императоре", "Место для памятника", "Ты взвешен на весах", "Чужой дневник", "Ленинградский каталог", "Питерские сантименты", "Два лика", "Герой, которого он любил всеми силами своей души", "Два рассказа. И. А. Бунин и А. П. Чехов".

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.
