Story and stories. About hunting

Repert from the publication Petrograd 1915. Edition of the editorial office of the magazine "Our Hunt". Alexey Pavlovich Dementiev is the best hunting writer who was nominated by the magazine "Our Hunt" and "Hunting Collections". The son of a rural teacher, he lived in the steppe areas of Bashkiria, after the revolution until the 30s was printed in the Ural Hunter. This, in fact, is all the information about the outstanding hunting writer, whose name is completely forgotten. The works of this writer are marked by the seal of genuine talent. For Dementiev, the very process of hunting, capture or extraction of the beast and bird, as it were, retreats to the background. A completely successful shot is the main thing for him, but the hunter in nature, his experiences, a whole gamma of feelings: joy, sadness, despair, hope, delight ... The writer"s favorite literary technique is to place his hunter hero in such conditions when He, in time, can not hunt for a place, health, telling about him when he waits for the discovery of the hunting season or the beginning of grouse currents. The author has something to tell about what passions are going on on such days in hot hunting hearts. The right, if you read some stories of Alexei Dementyev, without looking at the name of the author, you can, without doubt, say that the author is Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. Such a mistake does not detract from Dementiev’s talent at all, because in no case he is a plagiarism or a cunning compiler. Moreover, his stories, of course, are original, the author managed to only create a truly Chekhov mood and tonality in them. Dementiev undoubtedly enters the top ten of our best hunting writers.
