Russian writer Pavel Tetersky is from Lviv. He was born in 1975. Paul’s father was a military man, so as a child, the boy’s family moved from one city to another. Tetersky at different times lived in Chita, Irkutsk and St. Petersburg. He went to Moscow to study at the prestigious Institute of Asian and African Countries at Moscow State University. As Paul himself admits, he finished this university with a creak and then did not work a single day in his specialty. And he received a rare one – “Orientalist with knowledge of Arabic.”
Pavel Tetersky changed many professions. He earned a living by being alternately a journalist and a loader, a worker and a copywriter, a musician and a watchman, a junior manager and editor in print and online publications (including the famous Playboy magazine).
In 2000, together with his friend Sergey Sakin, he wrote the novel More Ben. In this book, young people describe their experience of traveling to England. There they led the life of losers: they lived in African neighborhoods, worked hard, committed petty thefts, fought with football fans. The work caused a great resonance in the literary environment. The book was scolded and praised. She was eventually awarded the Debut Award. In 2004, English director Susie Halewood made a film based on the novel. Pavel Tetersky published two more books in 2004 – “Clone-frame” and “Muto Boys”.
