From Troepol’skii and Ovechkin, from Zhestev and Kalinin, from the writings of Tendriakov and Zalygin of this period, the prose about the countryside inherited, so to say, “the economic analysis of the human being.” The novels and romances of V. Fomenko and E. Mal’tsev, S. Krutilin and V. Semin, F. Abramov, P. Proskurin, E. Dorosh were written. . . . These created a panorama of village life.

Did this panorama acquire decisive success in literature?

No. Of course, it did enter the annals and archives of literature. But the main event did not occur here. It occurred nearby.

Lyrical village tales and philosophical essays of young village writers became the real event. . . . The sober economic manager gave way to the village dreamer, the cunning muzhik, the joker, the eccentric, the sage, the very old man, the custodian of century-old traditions.
