After graduating from a rural school, Vladimir Krupin worked as a locksmith, a loader, and a slave-core of a district newspaper. After serving in the army, he entered the Moscow Regional Pedagogical Institute named after N. K. Krupskaya, graduated from the faculty of literature and Russian language. Subsequently, Vladimir Krupin worked on Central Television, in various literary and artistic publishing houses, and taught at school. He was secretary of the board of the Moscow branch of the joint venture of the RSFSR, the joint venture of the USSR; member of the editorial board of the journal "New World", editor-in-chief of the journal "Moscow" (1989-1992). Since 1994, he has been teaching at the Moscow Theological Academy; since 1998, he has been the editor-in-chief of the Christian magazine “The Holy Fire”. Vladmir Krupin began with the publication of poems, but his fame was brought by stories in the genre of “village prose”. Already the first collection of short stories “Grain”, published in 1974, testified to the emergence of a mature and outstanding author. In the Yamshchitsky story (1974), he tells about the Vyatka village during the civil war. The world famous novel "Living Water" (1980), translated into many languages. The story "The other day or earlier" (1977) is devoted to the problems of the family, "From the ruble and above" (1981) - the problems of artistic creativity, "Forgive, goodbye" (1986) and "Course of a young fighter" (1990) - memories of student years. Another major work of the genre of rural prose is the “Vyatka Notebook” (1987), a collection of stories about the “small homeland” of the writer. With the beginning of “perestroika” the writer actively acted with “state-patriotic” positions – a novel-testament about the atmosphere in the writer’s environment “Salvation of the Dead” (1988); the story “Farewell, Russia, Meet Me in Paradise” (1991), the story “As soon as, so at once” (1992). In the same vein, Krupin's journalism was sustained - articles in the journals "Our Contemporary" and "Moscow" - "Cross and the Abyss", "Bitter Mountain", "What, Christ sellers, have you brought Russia ...".
