Therefore, the pictures of nature in Rasputin’s works are filled with a mystical meaning: “...What a huge heart can accommodate such a scale of national misfortune.”

The boy’s mother saw and understood this talent if she decided to teach her son further - with three children and fatherlessness.
Uncle Vanya, the driver who brought the boy to the Ust-Uda regional center, also saw: “...We’re your guy, we won’t let you go to waste.”

This was followed by the stories “Live and Remember” (1974) and “Farewell to Matera” (1976), which placed their author among the best modern Russian writers.
Rasputin is one of the most prominent representatives of the so-called “ village prose", which flourished in the 1970s. last century. The main setting of his works is the Angara region: Siberian villages and towns. In his work, Rasputin proceeds from the idea of the norm of life, which consists in the mutual consistency of the opposite principles of existence. The key to such a holistic, harmonious perception of the world is the life and work of man on earth in accordance with his conscience, with himself and the life of nature.

Rasputin's works are known and loved by many. Rasputin Valentin Grigorievich - Russian writer, one of the most famous representatives"village prose" in literature. The severity and drama of ethical problems, the desire to find support in the world of peasant folk morality were reflected in his stories and stories dedicated to contemporary rural life. In this article we will talk about the main works created by this talented writer.
"Money for Maria"
This story was created in 1967. It was from here that Rasputin (his photo is presented above) entered literature as an original writer. The story “Money for Maria” brought the author wide fame. This work outlines the main themes of his further creativity: being and everyday life, a person among people. Valentin Grigorievich considers such moral categories as cruelty and mercy, material and spiritual, good and evil.
Rasputin raises the question of how much other people are touched by someone else's grief. Is anyone capable of refusing a person in trouble and leaving him to perish without financial support? How can these people, after refusal, calm their conscience? Maria, the main character of the work, suffers not only from the discovered shortage, but, perhaps, to a greater extent from people's indifference. After all, just yesterday they were good friends.
The Tale of the Dying Old Woman
main character Rasputin’s story “The Deadline,” created in 1970, depicts a dying old woman, Anna, who recalls her life. A woman feels that she is involved in the cycle of existence. Anna experiences the mystery of death, feeling it as the main event in human life.
Four children are opposed to this heroine. They came to say goodbye to their mother, to see her off last way. Anna's children are forced to stay next to her for 3 days. It was for this time that God delayed the old woman’s departure. The children's absorption in everyday worries, their vanity and fussiness present a sharp contrast with the spiritual work that takes place in the fading consciousness of the peasant woman. The narrative includes large layers of text, reflecting the experiences and thoughts of the characters in the work, and above all Anna.
Main themes
The topics that the author touches on are more multifaceted and deep than it might seem during a quick reading. The attitude of children towards their parents, relationships between various family members, old age, alcoholism, concepts of honor and conscience - all these motives in the story “The Deadline” are woven into a single whole. The main thing that interests the author is the problem of the meaning of human life.
The inner world of eighty-year-old Anna is filled with worries and worries about children. They all left long ago and live separately from each other. The main character only wants last time see them. However, her children, already grown up, are busy and businesslike representatives of modern civilization. Each of them has their own family. They are all thinking about many different things. They have enough energy and time for everything except their mother. For some reason they hardly remember her. And Anna only lives in thoughts about them.
When a woman feels death approaching, she is ready to endure a few more days just to see her family. However, the children find time and attention for the old woman only for the sake of decency. Valentin Rasputin shows their lives as if they generally live on earth for the sake of decency. Anna's sons are mired in drunkenness, while her daughters are completely absorbed in their “important” affairs. They are all insincere and ridiculous in their desire to spend a little time with their dying mother. The author shows us their moral decline, selfishness, heartlessness, callousness, which took possession of their souls and lives. people like this? Their existence is gloomy and soulless.
At first glance, it seems that the deadline is Anna's last days. However, in fact, this is the last chance for her children to fix something, to send their mother off with dignity. Unfortunately, they were unable to take advantage of this chance.
The Tale of a Deserter and His Wife
The work analyzed above is an elegiac prologue to the tragedy captured in the story entitled “Live and Remember,” created in 1974. If the old woman Anna and her children gather under their father’s roof in the last days of her life, then Andrei Guskov, who deserted from the army, finds himself cut off from the world.
Note that the events described in the story “Live and Remember” take place at the end of the Great Patriotic War. The symbol of Andrei Guskov's hopeless loneliness, his moral savagery is a wolf's hole located on an island in the middle of the Angara River. The hero hides in it from people and authorities.
The tragedy of Nastena
This hero's wife's name is Nastena. This woman secretly visits her husband. Every time she needs to swim across the river to meet him. It is no coincidence that Nastena overcomes the water barrier, because in myths it separates two worlds from each other - the living and the dead. Nastena is a truly tragic heroine. Valentin Grigoryevich Rasputin confronts this woman with a difficult choice between love for her husband (Nastena and Andrei were married in church) and the need to live among people, in the world. The heroine cannot find either support or sympathy in any person.
The village life that surrounds her is no longer an integral peasant cosmos, harmonious and self-contained within its own boundaries. The symbol of this cosmos, by the way, is Anna’s hut from the work “The Deadline”. Nastena commits suicide, taking with her into the river the child Andrei, whom she wanted so much and whom she conceived with her husband in his wolf’s den. Their death becomes an atonement for the deserter’s guilt, but she is unable to return this hero to his human appearance.
The story of the flooding of the village
The themes of parting with entire generations of people who lived and worked on their land, the themes of farewell to their mother-ancestress are already heard in “The Last Term”. In the story “Farewell to Matera,” created in 1976, they are transformed into a myth of death peasant world. This work tells about the flooding of a Siberian village located on an island as a result of the creation of a “man-made sea”. The island of Matera (from the word “mainland”), as opposed to the island depicted in “Live and Remember,” is a symbol of the promised land. This last refuge for living according to conscience, in accordance with nature and God.
The main characters of "Farewell to Matera"
At the head of the old women living out their days here is the righteous Daria. These women refuse to leave the island and move to a new village symbolizing new world. The old women, portrayed by Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin, remain here until the very end, until the hour of death. They guard their shrines - the pagan Tree of Life (royal foliage) and a cemetery with crosses. Only one of the settlers (named Pavel) comes to visit Daria. He is driven by a vague hope of joining the true meaning of existence. This hero, in contrast to Nastena, sails to the world of the living from the world of the dead, which is a mechanical civilization. However, the world of the living in the story “Farewell to Matera” perishes. At the end of the work, only its Owner, a mythical character, remains on the island. Rasputin ends the story with his desperate cry, which is heard in the dead emptiness.
"Fire"
In 1985, nine years after the creation of “Farewell to Matera,” Valentin Grigorievich decided to write again about the death of the communal world. This time he dies not in water, but in a fire. The fire is engulfing commercial warehouses located in the timber industry village. In the work, a fire breaks out on the site of a previously flooded village, which has symbolic meaning. People are not ready to fight disaster together. Instead, they, one by one, competing with each other, begin to take away the goods snatched from the fire.
Image of Ivan Petrovich
Ivan Petrovich - main character this work of Rasputin. It is from the point of view of this character, who works as a driver, that the author describes everything that happens in the warehouses. Ivan Petrovich is no longer the righteous hero typical of Rasputin’s work. He is in conflict with himself. Ivan Petrovich is looking for and cannot find “the simplicity of the meaning of life.” Therefore, the author’s vision of the world he depicts becomes disharmonious and becomes more complicated. From this follows the aesthetic duality of the work’s style. In “Fire,” the image of burning warehouses, captured by Rasputin in every detail, is adjacent to various symbolic and allegorical generalizations, as well as journalistic sketches of the life of the timber industry enterprise.
Finally
We examined only the main works of Rasputin. You can talk about the work of this author for a long time, but this still will not convey all the originality and artistic value his stories and stories. Rasputin's works are certainly worth reading. They present the reader the whole world, full of interesting discoveries. In addition to the works mentioned above, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the collection of Rasputin’s stories “The Man from the Other World,” published in 1965. Valentin Grigorievich's stories are no less interesting than his stories.
The beginning of independent creative work Valentin Grigoryevich Rasputin (born 1937) considered the story “Money for Maria,” which he wrote while already a member of the USSR Writers Union. In 1968 the story was published separate publication. The plot is simple: the saleswoman of the village store, Maria, has a shortage of a thousand rubles. To save his wife from prison, her husband Kuzma goes to his relatives and friends in search of money. Meetings with different people, Kuzma’s reflections on life form the basis of the book.
Rasputin gained wide popularity from the story “The Last Deadline,” published in 1970 in the magazine “Our Contemporary.” The writer spoke about last days old woman Anna, into whose house her children had gathered. IN Soviet literature It was not customary to write about the death of ordinary people; heroic death in the name of the party and homeland was usually glorified. Rasputin in his book, starting from a specific episode, reflects on death, on the transition of a person’s soul to another world. The author raises the main questions of existence in the story: about the meaning of life on earth, about the relationship between children and parents, about the break with one’s roots and, as a result, the loss of morality.
An event in Russian literature was the story “Live and Remember,” which appeared in print in 1974 (“Our Contemporary”). Theme of the book: atonement for the sin of betrayal of an innocent soul. The action of the story revolves around the desertion of Andrei Guskov from the army in recent months Great Patriotic War. Rasputin said in one of his conversations: “I am interested in female characters. I know how a woman behaves, what is on her mind, what she will do at this or the next moment. So, “Live and Remember” is written about women.” The true heroine of the story is Guskov's wife Nastena. She cannot survive her husband's betrayal and is forced to commit suicide. Rushing into the Angara, the woman also kills the unborn child. The story expresses the idea of responsibility for a loved one.
With the image of Nastena, the author emphasizes that you cannot push a person away, you must be able to sympathize with him. The story “Live and Remember” was met with ambiguity: on the one hand, enthusiastic criticism, on the other, a ban in military units from subscribing to the magazine “Our Contemporary”, since it was in it that a work glorifying desertion was published.
Two years later, Rasputin again shocked readers, this time it was the story “Farewell to Matera” (“Our Contemporary”, 1976). The plot was based on real events: during the years of construction of the Bratsk hydroelectric power station, the writer’s native village, Atalinka, was flooded. Ma-tera is an island and the name of a village that is subject to flooding. The old people are trying to defend the village, they are worried about the fate of the village cemetery. The story “Farewell to Matera” is the writer’s reflections on the fate of the Russian village. The island of Matera for Rasputin is a model of the peasant world with its patriarchal way of life, with its moral laws. The writer believes that “since some unspecified time, civilization has taken the wrong course, seduced by mechanical achievements and leaving human improvement on the tenth plane.” Material from the site
Rasputin is rightfully considered one of the best representatives of village prose. The writer’s last major work was the philosophical and journalistic story “Fire” (1985). The fire in the small village of Sosnovka was a kind of punishment for people mired in profit, drunkenness, and unconsciousness.
IN last years the writer more often turns to journalism. Among him latest works It is worth noting the story “Unexpectedly-Unexpectedly” (1997), the stories “Izba” and “Ivan’s Daughter, Ivan’s Mother”. Rasputin, summing up some of the results of his work, once said that he understood what wealth God had given him - the Russian folk language. With him there was a direct path to “village” literature; apart from it, he would hardly have made it as a writer.
