Kuznetsov Anatoly Vasilyevich (18.08.1929, Kiev - 13.06.1979, London). My father is a red guerrilla. Mother is a singing teacher. The war was fought during the German occupation. In the early 1950s he worked as a carpenter on the construction of the Kakhov HPP. In 1955 he entered the Litin Institute. As a student, he worked as a concrete worker on the construction of the Irkutsk HPP. Hotly on the material of this construction Kuznetsov wrote in the form of a diary story “Continuation of the legend” (1957). He received his diploma in 1960. The noise caused the story “Babi Yar” (“Youth”, 1966, No. 8-10). Censorship frankly considered this book anti-Soviet. Kuznetsov was forced to exclude from the manuscript a number of episodes related to the explosions by Soviet saboteurs of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. He was also asked to erase all references to the 1933 famine. At one time he lived in Tula, where, as claimed in the “Notes of the Soviet editor” Vl. Matusevich (with reference to the writer Anatoly Tkachenko), he arranged a brothel, which was often visited by Boris Poleva, An. Pristavyn and other writers. In 1969, after long pleas, he knocked out a business trip from the leadership of the Union of Writers of the USSR to collect materials for the story about Lenin. Just before the trip, he published the story “Fire” in “Youth”. In this work, as N. Leiderman and M. Lipovetsky believe, “the former “star boys” are presented plunged into an even more cruel spiritual crisis than before – dreams of remaking the world did not come true, steep slides rolled around, the very generation of “star boys” split into those who betrayed and those who were betrayed” (N. Leiderman, M. Lipovetsky). Modern Russian literature. 1950s and 1990s. 1. M., 2003). On July 30, he decided to settle in England forever. In the USSR, the writer remained a mother, wife and nine-year-old son. In May 1979, Kuznetsov had a daughter. Later, the writer publicly stated that he was a KGB informant. The Liberals, when they heard this, were shocked. Later, many publications appeared about the writer’s cooperation with the KGB.
