Alexander Terekhov is a Russian journalist and writer from Novomoskovsk.
In the period from 1983 to 1984, Terekhov worked as a correspondent of the district publication in the Belgorod region. Between 1984 and 1986, he served in the Internal Troops. Alexander completed his studies at the journalism faculty of Moscow State University in 1991.
Terekhov worked as a columnist for the Ogonek and Top Secret editions, was deputy editor-in-chief of the People edition. In addition, he had the opportunity to work as an editor of the publication “Real Time”. He was a member of the jury of the prestigious Debut award.
In 1999, Alexander became General Director of the publishing house “I read”. He was a member of the Moscow Union of Writers. The writer is fluent in German and English. As a prose writer, he was published in periodicals.
Terekhov won the second Big Book award for his eight-page novel Stone Bridge, which was based on the investigation of the mysterious murder and suicide of two boys and a girl from the highest Stalinist elite on Stone Bridge in 1943. The style of the novel is mocumentaries.
Literary critics noted the high level of the text of the work, but their attention was also focused on the author’s ambiguous coverage of Stalinism and the disappointing conclusions made by Terekhov that it is not necessary to stir up the past, the truth is not possible to determine, and history is only the fruit of various interpretations.
In the summer of 2012, Alexander was awarded the “National Bestseller” award for the work “The Germans”, where the author artistically reinterpreted his own experience as the director of the press center of the prefecture of the Moscow Western Administrative District from 1999 to 2008.
