Alexander Stepanovich Green (1880-1932) - an outstanding Russian prose writer and poet, a representative of neuromantism. Green - the pseudonym of the writer, his real name is Grinevsky. Born in the family of Polish Shlyakhtich and a Russian nurse, in the Vyatka province. I learned to read at the age of 6, and his first favorite book - the "travel of Gulliver" Swift - determined the consciousness of the future writer: his love of the sea and fiction. Having studied at the Vyatka School, 16-year-old Grinevsky went to sailors, to Odessa, but did not find romance there and began to wander-he was a fisherman, a laborer, a lumberjack, a gold minister, a miner, a soldier and even a revolutionary of the Season.
Having served in prison and escaping from it, in 1906, Green begins to write, during his short life he became the author of four hundred works. Already in his second collection of stories, the upcoming Green Skazchik with his unique style is noticeable. Dating with A. Tolstoy, L. Andreev, V. Bryusov, A. Kuprin have a considerable influence on him.
In 1919, recruited into the Red Army, Green gets a rash typhus. With the assistance of Maxim Gorky, he manages to get an academician and a room in the "House of Arts", where he lives a gloomy hermit, but it was then that the famous extravaganza of the “Scarlet Sails" is born - a bright story about an ordinary miracle, born in the cold and hungry Petrograd. The story is published in 1923. In the same decade, Green writes the novel "Golden Chain" ("Memories of the Dream of a boy seeking miracles and having them") and a new masterpiece “Running along the waves”, which is hardly possible to publish. Green does not accept the revolution, her violence and madness, and the new century also does not accept Green.
"The era rushes by. She does not need me - the way I am. And I cannot be others. And I don"t want to. " Indeed, since 1930, Soviet censorship, with the explanation of "You have not merged with the era", banned Green"s reprint. The writer and his wife, whom he dedicated to the No. Authentic Sails", waged a half -starved existence until Green"s death in 52.
Critics still cannot attribute the work of Alexander Green to any of the literary traditions: he is not a science fiction or realist, not a symbolist and not a romantic, but all this together and in a completely original style.
