poetry

Anatoly Grigorievich Poperechny was born on November 22, 1934 in the city of Novaya Odessa, Nikolaev region. War childhood passed in the Urals. After the war he returned to Nikolaev. After graduating from the tenth year, he went to work at the Black Sea shipbuilding plant, attended the factory literary association "Stapel". At the same time, he studied in absentia at the Faculty of Philology of the Nikolaev Pedagogical Institute, then at the Leningrad State Pedagogical Institute. A.I. Herzen. He graduated in 1954. The first collection of poems "Full Moon" was published in Leningrad in 1959. The second collection of poetry "Black bread" was published in 1960. In the same year he was admitted to the Writers' Union.

The poet's poetic world is diverse. This is the philosophical search for the meaning of life, its historical roots, the poet's purpose, and love, the Motherland, and the painful search for one's own word. The artistic reflection of reality in the poet's works is indicated by vivid lyricism, lively imagery, and aphoristic style.

More than twenty poems and poems by Anatoly Poperechny are dedicated to the Great Patriotic War. A whole cycle that continues: "There was a soldier." "Vineyard". "Hospital" and others. One can only wonder how only the childish consciousness of Anatoly Poperechny, who was not even seven years old. when the war broke out, he was able to capture its essence and details. The picture depicted by him at the crossing of the Dnieper in the poem "Ferry of the forty-first year" is striking in its terrible reality. But both in the lines about the war, and in the poet's entire poetic palette, there is no hopelessness.

In many of his poems, the poet creates pictures in which we associate recognize the signs, the color of our native land, - "Behind the windows the white steppe was breaking apart by the white road to the Scythian mound." ". "Behind the estuary", "Noon", "August field", "Varvarovsky bridge", the poems "The kernel", "Hot shop" and many others.

Many of Anatoly Poperechny's poems became songs. Their consonance and melody easily fit into the musical lines. These are "Nightingale Grove", "Robin", "Stork on the Roof", "Raspberry Ringing". "Romance". "Golden Heart" and others. In recent years, two CDs have been released with songs based on poems by A. Poperechny, which are sung by famous performers S Rotaru, I. Kobzon. M. Rasputin. M. Evdokimov and others.

In the Nikolaev region in November 1934, the popular poet Anatoly Poperechny was born, a Soviet and Russian songwriter, the author of texts that people sang right away and sings to this day.

Childhood and youth

The poet spent the first four years on the picturesque bank of the Southern Bug in the regional center of the Nikolaev region called New Odessa, and in 1938 the family moved to Nikolaev. During the war, they had to evacuate, and the future poet Anatoly Poperechny, with all sorts of troubles and dangers, traveled to the Urals, where he lived until his native land was liberated. They returned to the land ravaged by the war in 1944, where they had to rebuild and rebuild everything. In the same place, in Nikolaev, Anatoly Poperechny graduated from the tenth year and got a job at the Black Sea shipyard.

However, he did not leave his studies. Despite the production difficulties (he worked in a hot shop), beautiful poetry was written, and the poet was willingly accepted to the Nikolaev Pedagogical Institute for philology. True, I had to study in absentia and with many interruptions. For many decades, a literary association "Stapel" existed at the shipyard, which Anatoly Poperechny visited with great pleasure: there he was understood and appreciated for his work.

First publications

"Tribune of a Stakhanovite" was the name of the large-circulation newspaper of the shipyard, where Anatoly's first publications appeared. Everyday life at the factory was surprisingly set up for activity, the poet managed to do a lot: he wrote poetry, prepared tests for the institute, gradually learned to write small notes and extensive essays about his comrades in the hot shop. And he did it so well that an offer of cooperation came from the editorial bosses.

Almost immediately, poems by Anatoly Poperechny began to appear in the newspaper, which were read with pleasure not only by the workers of their native enterprise, but also by completely strangers. The regional newspaper "Yuzhnaya Pravda" drew attention to this fact and also published Anatoly's poems from time to time. After a short time, even the central newspapers several times honored the publication of the work of the young poet.

Books

The debut turned out to be successful. Literally a year later, the collection "Red Leaves" was published. And after the publication of the second book, writers and poets could already enter into a high professional union, and Anatoly Grigorievich Poperechny was given the necessary recommendations. In 1960, he was not only admitted to the Writers' Union of the USSR, but also invited to work in the magazine "October" as the head of the poetry department. Thus, the whole family had to move to Moscow, where he found real nationwide fame.

Milestones

The rest of his life was spent in the capital, although the work of Anatoly Poperechny trumpeted completely different realities and made him spend most of his time on trips and in nature. Since childhood, he loved to read, the authors of his desk books were Shevchenko and Gogol, and in the seventies, Vasily Makarovich Shukshin forced almost all authors to make room on his writing desk, whose books became not just desk books. Anatoly Poperechny knew the work of his favorite writer better than his own texts. His biography was based on the unshakable principles of goodness and truth.

Could the Poperechnye spouses, a simple agronomist Grigory Demyanovich and paramedic Alexandra Mikhailovna, have dreamed of such a future for their son? What kind of nightingale did Anatoly grow up to be, if his poems are set one after the other to the music, and then immediately begin to sound from every window, in every feast? The family of Anatoly Poperechny knew by heart every poem, every poem from all twenty-two of his collections. All his life, the poet's work was supported by his wife, his muse - Svetlana Ivanovna. And his son Sergei, who was born in 1958, when there was still no fame and nothing, it would seem, foreshadowed it, helped to go through the whole difficult path to fame.

Creation

Is there a person in the country who would not hum the song "Stork on the Roof" at least from time to time? And the song "Grass by the House" has been sung since 1985 by all generations, and will be sung in all future times. Such songs, which have become popular, can be enumerated and enumerated, there are dozens of them that instantly became popular and did not lose this hypostasis with all the changes in the country that affected both the way of life and moral principles, and even with a change in the social and political system.

The collections of Anatoly Poperechny can be re-read at all times, they will never lose their relevance, since the external manifestations of life concern them little. This is deep, painfully familiar to everyone. This is "Black bread" and "Invisible battle" from the sixties, this is earth and space - "Orbit", "Grass at home", this is the eternal "Crimson ringing" that does not subside in the soul of every Russian, and not just a Soviet person. Songs to verses by Anatoly Poperechny will always sound.

May 2014

Not everyone remembers the names of songwriters. But the songs that were once performed by Lev Leshchenko, the Zemlyane group, Alexander Malinin, Nadezhda Babkina, Mikhail Shufutinsky, Philip Kirkorov, Sofia Rotaru, Iosif Kobzon, Lyudmila Zykina and many other stars of previous years, were picked up by new performers. That is why the voice of robins will sound, and the next cosmonauts will dream of the grass near the house, and they will sing about Olesya from Polesie at a family celebration in the twenty-second century, and the song "Stork on the Roof" will not be forgotten. These are truly eternal hits.

And in May 2014, Anatoly Poperechny passed away. The cause of death - a common one today - is heart failure. This is a real grief for all people in love with the song. The poet was ill for a long time, he had a heart attack, which is also not uncommon at the age of eighty. Life in the end did not spoil him at all, despite the huge number of constantly sounding hits. And he wrote poetry literally until his last minute. It turned out that there was no money even to bury the poet with dignity in the Moscow cemetery. Svetlana Ivanovna had to sell the apartment.

Memories

Anatoly Poperechny was a good person, judging by the words of people who worked with him a lot. The only objection that was heard from him is that Anatoly did not rank himself among the cohort of songwriters. He argued that the title of "just a poet" was enough for him. Indeed, you need to be a truly brave poet to use the phrase "glorious bird" (everyone's favorite song "Nightingale Grove"). Almost Mayakovsky.

His wife Svetlana Ivanovna, who was the only muse whom she managed to "tame" ten long years after the first meeting, says that her husband never wrote poetry not about love. Apparently, this is why the whole people have been singing songs to the words of Anatoly Poperechny for many decades. This topic is close to everyone, but not everyone will be able to reveal it so clearly and so laconically.

Poet about his life

During his life, the poet rarely gave extensive interviews. And now they are few and therefore invaluable evidence. The path of life is precisely what leads the poet to an understanding of poetry, to figurative thinking, to the essence of poetry.

The father's chorus speaks about the family most of all: "You are an agronomist, an agronomist, black soil under your nails ..." Father was simple in his understanding of life, pure in thoughts. My son did not encourage his passion for poetry, he saw him only with a real craft in his hands. The theme of fathers and children, associated with the war, was raised by the poet many times: "Swan flock", "Full moon", "Vineyard", "Black bread" - remarkable for their depth of the poem.

Flush

If it had not been for the exceptional popularity of song lyrics, Anatoly Poperechny would still be on a par with prominent Russian poets - Kazakova, Tsybin, Rubtsov, Gordeichev, Peredreev. Let them not sing about what difficult and sometimes tragic fates of the working people are reflected in the poems "Hot Shop", "Tsar Turner", "Three Masters", where labor is the highest meaning of human life. These are real poems.

Mother was a nurse during the war and accompanied the sanitary train from Ukraine to the Urals. Naturally, the little son saw and felt all the hardships that the people inherited during the wartime. While crossing the Dnieper, they had to endure the raid of the fascist "Messers" on the columns of the wounded and refugees. Then, many years later, it was from these experiences that the poems "Ferry 41 Years", "Freight Train", "Orphan", "Night Ferries" were born.

"Ryazan Madonnas"

The poem "Soldier" turned out to be so heartfelt, permeated with such genuine, real, lofty pathos that they were read to it even before the song appeared, which the whole world fell in love with. The name of the song is different - "Ryazan Madonnas", one line within the poem. This change was insisted on by the excellent composer Alexander Dolukhanyan, who wrote music that was really consonant with poetic lines.

The song instantly became a hit, it was recorded in Japan and France, and the voice of Lyudmila Zykina sounded all over the world. This song is for all time, since it is recognized as a pop classic, like many other songs on the verses of Anatoly Poperechny. They do not run out of light, joy, tenderness, kindness, anxiety, experiences that give people inspiration and innermost feelings, memories and hope, inspire hearts.

Co-creation

Such demanding composers as Bogoslovsky, Dolukhanyan, Tukhmanov worked a lot with Anatoly Poperechny. Among the musicians, such recognized professionals as "Pesnyary", "Flame", "Earthlings", "Verasy" and many, many other excellent masters performed songs on the verses of this poet. Dolina and Leontyev, Shavrina and Gnatyuk, Piekha and Allegrova - it’s even impossible to list all those who helped raise these songs to the top of popularity.

Dobrynin and Shainsky, Migulya and Krutoy, Morozov and Ivanov were inspired by the poetry of Anatoly Poperechny. And all because, despite the simplicity of the verbal images, the texts turned out to be very deep, leaving a long "aftertaste" in the form of memories. Songs one after another became legends: "Soul hurts", "Stork on the roof", "Forces of heaven", "White lilac" ... The author just loved life very much and never tired of being surprised and rejoicing in all its good manifestations.

About the poetic world

Even for hits known throughout the country, one can conclude that the poetic world of Anatoly Poperechny is wide and diverse. Everything is already here: the search for the meaning of life, and the Motherland, and love for it, and the desire from its historical roots to reach the poet's real purpose through his own, hard-won word. Reality is always reflected in the works of Poperechnoi artistically, vividly lyrically, vividly figuratively and aphoristically.

The poet devoted more than twenty poems and poems to the memory of the Great Patriotic War. It is amazing how a seven-year-old child managed to preserve all these small, intimate, precious details that fill his poems with a terrifying reality until the very incarnation. However, there is no hopelessness there either. There is the flavor of the native land, painfully suffering, but always victorious, letting you know with every letter.

Your word

But this "word" had to be sought in the same way as every poet does - tirelessly and painfully. Anatoly Poperechny spent his whole life in search of these, traveled almost the entire country, where he communicated with completely different people. I fished in the Caspian Sea (where the heartfelt poem "Red stones" was brought from), I was in Siberia, I visited Ukraine often and for a long time - my homeland was still in Belarus, and I even settled in Transbaikalia, because it was there that the book was supposed to be born and was born " Core".

All the joy and all the pain of the past century are reflected in the poetry of Anatoly Poperechny. Reading it is not boring: the language is colorful, with its characteristic Little Russian flavor, the intonation is wide, enticing. The heroes of his poems often have a tragic fate, but evil is always overcome, because the theme of love never ceases to sound - for people, for the Motherland, for the world that is about to arise. There is harmony in the verses of the Transverse, in them nature and man are one.

Melodic

It is not for nothing that the song is called the fate of a generation of people. Some songs are going through their generation. In Transverse, the melody of the verse is such that there are dozens of "long-lived" songs. Some critics talk about the approach of these texts to folk art, where there is a certain conciliarity - uniting, gathering, reconciling a variety of people.

Others talk about deep psychologism, which helps to penetrate into the most intimate corners of the soul, about associativity. After all, what is a "crimson ringing" for a Russian person? It is, first of all, a symbol. Therefore, all the poet's work is a bow to his native nature, it is a devotion to one's own loyalty and understanding to any plowman, shipbuilder, blacksmith, this is the love of life in all its manifestations.

Poperechny Anatoly Grigorievich

Born on November 22, 1934 in the village of New Odessa (now the city of New Odessa), Nikolaev region of Ukraine. Father - Grigory Demyanovich, an agronomist. Mother - Alexandra Mikhailovna, medical assistant. Spouse - Svetlana Ivanovna Poperechnaya. Son - Sergei (born 1958).

In 1938 the Poperechny family moved from New Odessa to Nikolaev. In August 1941, 7-year-old Anatoly, together with his mother, a nurse in a medical train, had to cross the country from the Dnieper to the Urals. I still remember the crossing of the Dnieper, when fascist "messers" began to dive at the column of refugees and wounded. Many years later A. Poperechny wrote about this a poem "Ferry of the forty-first year", later - "Orphan", "She defends the Motherland", "Freight train", "Night crossings".

A. Poperechny spent his wartime childhood in the Urals. These were the hardest years for the country, and Anatoly felt it with all his heart, not protected from resentment and bitterness. It was scary to fall into the abyss of "fatherlessness", everyday life, hooliganism. But my father's letters from the front helped, books helped, my mother helped. The theme of "war", the eternal theme of "fathers and sons" many years later found reflection in A. Poperechny's poems "Black bread", "Vineyard", "Full Moon", "Swan flock", "In a country that does not remember kinship" and others ... And thanks to the strong, dramatic music of the composer A. Dolukhanyan, the poem "The Soldier" became a widely popular song "The Ryazan Madonnas".

In 1944 Anatoly returned to Nikolaev with his mother. He served as a cabin boy on the destroyer "Savvy". “I scrubbed the deck there, and lived in the cockpit, and they gave me a uniform! I really liked it,” Anatoly Grigorievich recalls. “But my father came back from the front and took me away — I should, they say, continue my studies. I'm on the sea side. " Subsequently, the marine theme was widely reflected in the poet's work. Anatoly began to write poetry early, but he had to write in secret: his father forbade him, who wanted to see his son in the future as an agronomist, engineer, but not a poet. After graduating from the tenth year, Anatoly went to work at the Black Sea shipbuilding plant, first as an auxiliary worker in the "hot" shop, then as an employee of the editorial office of the plant's large-circulation newspaper "Tribuna of the Stakhanovtsa". He wrote essays, including in verse, about the workers of the plant. His poems began to appear in the local newspaper "Yuzhnaya Pravda", and soon in central newspapers.

At the same time A. Poperechny studied at the correspondence department of the philological faculty of the Nikolaev Pedagogical Institute (later transferred to the Herzen Pedagogical Institute in Leningrad). At the plant, he became close to working people, got acquainted with interesting human destinies, difficult, and sometimes tragic. All this later served as an impetus for writing the poems "Three Masters", "Tsar Turner", "Hot Shop", dedicated to the workers. An important understanding of labor as the highest meaning of life appeared in his creative biography.

In 1957 A. Poperechny sent the manuscript of his poems to Moscow, to the publishing house "Soviet Writer". Unexpectedly, I received a letter of approval and two positive reviews. At that time, for an unknown author, this was unheard of. Among the reviewers who positively decided the fate of A. Poperechny's first book was A.P. Mezhirov. The first book for a poet is his poetic passport, his clergyman and, at the same time, the application with which he came into the world. Such a document for A. Poperechnoi was the collection of poems and poems "Full Moon", published in "Soviet Writer" in 1959 in Leningrad. The young poet was "recognized" at once, his works began to be published in many magazines. In 1960, the second book of poems and poems, "Red Leaves", was published. As in the first, the influence of the poetry of E. Bagritsky, P. Vasiliev, B. Kornilov was still felt in it. However, A. Poperechny did not hide his craving for apprenticeship with these great masters, different, but at the same time creating a whole trend in Russian poetry, where the brightness and brilliance of the image, metaphoricality, the "tenfold" sense of life, of being in the "beautiful, furious the world. "

In 1960, A. Poperechny was admitted to the Union of Writers of the USSR, where he was elected secretary of the Komsomol organization. Soon he was invited to head the poetry department in the Moscow magazine "October", and A. Poperechny, together with his wife and son, moved to the capital. A "new" life began with "old" concerns, in an agonizing search for "one's own" word. He traveled a lot around the country, met with people of different professions, tried to comprehend the essence of the events of current life. So, once I had to go fishing in the Caspian on a par with professional fishermen, live in the very outback, face the tragic fate of the fisherwoman Mani in order to bring and put on the writing table an almost finished poem "Red stones". Whenever possible, I always tried to thoroughly study the "material" or experience the feeling, the state that I was going to describe. He visited construction sites - in Siberia, the Urals, Belarus, Ukraine, for a long time he lived in Transbaikalia. There, in Transbaikalia, the book "Nucleus" was born. The appearance of contemporaries, the spiritual search for the ideal formed the core of this book. Departing somewhat from the exuberant "herb" of images and metaphors inherent in his early books, the poet looked more and more closely at the fate of people, his contemporaries, at the world of memory, at the world of forever gone childhood and alluring future. This is how the book of poems "Orbit" appeared.

Having come to poetry in the early 1960s, at the height of the so-called "pop" poetry, A. Poperechny never renounced civic themes, preached quiet, soulful lyrics. He entered the galaxy of such poets as R. Kazakova, V. Tsybin, N. Rubtsov, V. Gordeychev, A. Peredreev.

The poetry of A. Poperechny is a kind of confession of a contemporary about the pains and joys of the century. It combines colorfulness, linguistic flavor, breadth of the transferred intonation. The heroes of his poems are people of difficult and sometimes tragic fate. In search of truth, in overcoming evil, the lyric hero of the poet sees the meaning of life. The transverse, with its characteristic expression, develops the themes of love, homeland, earthly love with the world around it, preaches the harmony of man and nature. Fidelity to civic duty is expressed in these verses:

I hate lying words

And into the fire that played ash!

I will never lie to the earth.

The poetry of A. Poperechny attracted the attention of composers and songwriters with its melodic quality. A. Dolukhanyan, having read his poem "The Soldier", decided to put it to music and asked the poet to change the name to "Ryazan Madonnas" and write the chorus. This song performed by L. Zykina gained immense popularity, spread all over the world, was recorded in many countries, including Japan, France.

Song occupies a special place in A. Poperechnoi's work. It was the lines that became songs that brought him nationwide fame. Songs created in collaboration with such composers as A. Dolukhanyan, N. Bogoslovsky, Y. Frenkel, Y. Saulsky, D. Tukhmanov, E. Ptichkin, V. Shainsky, V. Matetsky, V. Migulya, I. Krutoy, I. Mateta, O. Ivanov, A. Morozov, V. Dobrynin, E. Stikhin, E. Hanok, E. Bednenko, V. Semenov, E. Schekalev, A. Zuev and others, entered the repertoire of L. Zykina, K. . Shulzhenko, I. Kobzon, L. Leshchenko, S. Rotaru, E. Shavrina, V. Tolkunova, V. Troshin, N. Gnatyuka, N. Chepragi, O. Voronets, L. Dolinoy, V. Leontyeva, E. Piekha , I. Allegrova, groups "Syabry", "Pesnyary", "Verasy", VIA "Flame", M. Evdokimov, N. Babkina, M. Shufutinsky and other performers. "Nightingale Grove", "Raspberry Ringing", "Olesya", "Wedding Horses", "Robinovka", "Stork on the Roof", "Why, I Don't Know", "Grass by the House", "Zavalinka" have long been recognized as pop classics. They have a lot of light, joy, tenderness, kindness, anxiety, experiences, they give innermost feelings, inspiration, memories, hope, and inspire the hearts of people.

According to A. Poperechny, a song is the fate of a person, and sometimes of a whole generation of people. The poet believes that the work in the song brings him closer to Nekrasov's understanding of poetry and nationality, its civic essence. He is convinced that "poems, hard-won, created about people and for people and set on talented music, are necessary." In the poetry of Anatoly Poperechny there is something that makes the listener think and feel the song. His poetry rises to the heights of folk art, reflecting the fate and spirit of the people and making songs and their performers popular.

The poet believes that conciliarity should always be present in the song, the song should gather, unite, reconcile people. The artistic thinking of A. Poperechny is distinguished by active associativity, deep psychologism, which help him to penetrate into the innermost corners of the human soul. His works are a tribute to the Fatherland, father's house, "crimson ringing" floating from the fate and greatness of the Motherland. His work is a tribute to nature, love, fidelity, the village, the plowman, the blacksmith and the shipbuilder, childhood and adolescence, life in general, to which he considers himself an eternal debtor. A. Poperechny once defined the themes of his poems and songs with lines from his poem:

There is a lot in the world

Art -

Do not spare anything for people.

On December 4, 2000, in the State Central Concert Hall "Russia", a jubilee evening dedicated to the 40th anniversary of A. Poperechny's creative activity "Russia, Motherland, Love" was held, at which he performed not only as a recognized People's Poet of Russia, but also as a composer: at the evening the march "Borodino", written in his poems and music, was performed for the first time.

A. Poperechny - author of 22 collections of poems and poems: "Full Moon" (1959), "Red Leaves" (1960), "Black Bread" (1960), "Invisible Battle" (1962), "Orbit" (1964), " Russia, Motherland, Love "(1964)," Night Trains "(1965)," Ninth Circle "(1968)," Fury-Life "(1973)," Nucleus "(1975)," August Field "(1976), "Green Gate" (1981), "Face" (1982), "Selected Poems and Poems" (1984), "Grass at Home" (1985), "Tribute" (1987), "Night Ferries" (1988). He published several translated books (from Georgian, Armenian, Bashkir, Hebrew), as well as a collection of stories for children "Zuidwestka". He has written a number of plays and screenplays. The poet is the author of the drama "The Fiery Legend" (together with L. Mitrofanov). In 1968 the book by A. Poperechny and I. Glazunov "Russia, Motherland, Love" was published, which was conceived as a lyric-epic composition in paintings and poetry. This publication is the result of the creative collaboration of the poet and the artist, who each in their own way reproduce the stages of the historical fate of Russia. A. Poperechny is the author of a large number of publications and critical articles in periodicals.

Anatoly Grigorievich is fond of fiction, especially N.V. Gogol, T.G. Shevchenko and V.M. Shukshin. He likes to spend his free time in nature.

A. Poperechny spent his wartime childhood in the Urals. These were the hardest years for the country, and Anatoly felt it with all his heart, not protected from resentment and bitterness. It was scary to fall into the abyss of "fatherlessness", everyday life, hooliganism. But my father's letters from the front helped, books helped, my mother helped. The theme of "war", the eternal theme of "fathers and sons" many years later found reflection in the poems of A. Poperechny "Black bread", "Vineyard", "Full Moon", "Swan flock", "In a country that does not remember kinship" and others ... And thanks to the strong, dramatic music of the composer A. Dolukhanyan, the poem "The Soldier" has become a widely popular song "The Ryazan Madonnas".

In 1944 Anatoly returned to Nikolaev with his mother. He served as a cabin boy on the destroyer "Savvy". “I scrubbed the deck there, and lived in the cockpit, and they gave me a uniform! I really liked it, - Anatoly Grigorievich recalls. - But my father came back from the front and took me away, they say, I must continue my studies. If he had not done this, I would have gone on the naval unit. " Subsequently, the marine theme was widely reflected in the poet's work. Anatoly began to write poetry early, but he had to write in secret: his father forbade him, who wanted to see his son in the future as an agronomist, engineer, but not a poet. After graduating from the tenth year, Anatoly went to work at the Black Sea shipbuilding plant, first as an auxiliary worker in the "hot" shop, then as an employee of the editorial office of the factory's large-circulation newspaper "Tribuna Stakhanovtsa". He wrote essays, including in verse, about the workers of the plant. His poems began to appear in the local newspaper Yuzhnaya Pravda, and soon in central newspapers.

At the same time A. Poperechny studied at the correspondence department of the philological faculty of the Nikolaev Pedagogical Institute (later transferred to the Herzen Pedagogical Institute in Leningrad). At the plant, he became close to working people, got acquainted with interesting human destinies, difficult, and sometimes tragic. All this later served as an impetus for writing the poems "Three Masters", "Tsar Turner", "Hot Shop", dedicated to the workers. An important understanding of labor as the highest meaning of life appeared in his creative biography.

In 1957 A. Cross sent the manuscript of his poems to Moscow, to the publishing house "Soviet Writer". Unexpectedly, I received a letter of approval and two positive reviews. At that time, for an unknown author, this was unheard of. Among the reviewers who positively decided the fate of A. Poperechny's first book was A.P. Mezhirov. The first book for a poet is his poetic passport, his clergyman and, at the same time, the application with which he came into the world. Such a document for A. Poperechnoi was the collection of poems and poems "Full Moon", published in "Soviet Writer" in 1959 in Leningrad. The young poet was "recognized" immediately, his works began to be published in many magazines. In 1960, the second book of poems and poems, "Red Leaves", was published. As in the first, the influence of the poetry of E. Bagritsky, P. Vasiliev, B. Kornilov was still felt in it. However, A. Poperechny did not hide his craving for apprenticeship with these great masters, different, but at the same time creating a whole trend in Russian poetry, where the brightness and brilliance of the image, metaphoricality, the "tenfold" sense of life, being in the "beautiful, furious the world ".

In 1960, A. Poperechny was admitted to the Union of Writers of the USSR, where he was elected secretary of the Komsomol organization. Soon he was invited to head the poetry department of the Moscow magazine "October", and A. Poperechny, along with his wife and son, moved to the capital. A "new" life began with "old" concerns, in a painful search for "one's own" word. He traveled a lot around the country, met with people of different professions, tried to comprehend the essence of the events of current life. So, once I had to go fishing in the Caspian on a par with professional fishermen, live in the very outback, face the tragic fate of the fisherwoman Mani in order to bring and put on the writing table an almost finished poem "Red stones". Whenever possible, I always tried to thoroughly study the "material" or experience the feeling, the state that I was going to describe. He visited construction sites - in Siberia, the Urals, Belarus, Ukraine, for a long time he lived in Transbaikalia. There, in Transbaikalia, the book "Nucleus" was born. The appearance of contemporaries, the spiritual search for the ideal formed the core of this book. Departing somewhat from the exuberant "herb" of images and metaphors inherent in his early books, the poet looked more and more closely at the fate of people, his contemporaries, at the world of memory, at the world of forever gone childhood and alluring future. This is how the book of poems "Orbit" appeared.

Having come to poetry in the early 1960s, at the height of the so-called "pop" poetry, A. Poperechny never renounced civic themes, preached quiet, soulful lyrics. He entered the galaxy of such poets as R. Kazakova, V. Tsybin, N. Rubtsov, V. Gordeychev, A. Peredreev.

The poetry of A. Poperechny is a kind of confession of a contemporary about the pains and joys of the century. It combines colorfulness, linguistic flavor, breadth of the transferred intonation. The heroes of his poems are people of difficult and sometimes tragic fate. In search of truth, in overcoming evil, the lyric hero of the poet sees the meaning of life. The transverse, with its characteristic expression, develops the themes of love, homeland, earthly love with the world around it, preaches the harmony of man and nature.

The poetry of A. Poperechny attracted the attention of composers and songwriters with its melodic quality. A. Dolukhanyan, having read his poem "The Soldier", decided to put it to music and asked the poet to change the name to "Ryazan Madonnas" and write the chorus. This song performed by L. Zykina gained immense popularity, spread all over the world, was recorded in many countries, including Japan, France.

A special place in creativity A. Cross takes the song. It was the lines that became songs that brought him nationwide fame. Songs created in collaboration with such composers as A. Dolukhanyan, N. Bogoslovsky, Y. Frenkel, Y. Saulsky, D. Tukhmanov, E. Ptichkin, V. Shainsky, V. Matetsky, V. Migulya, I. Krutoy, I. Mateta, O. Ivanov, A. Morozov, V. Dobrynin, E. Stikhin, E. Hanok, E. Bednenko, V. Semenov, E. Schekalev, A. Zuev and others, entered the repertoire of L. Zykina, K. . Shulzhenko, I. Kobzon, L. Leshchenko, S. Rotaru, E. Shavrina, V. Tolkunova, V. Troshin, N. Gnatyuka, N. Chepragi, O. Voronets, L. Dolinoy, V. Leontyeva, E. Piekha , I. Allegrova, groups "Syabry", "Pesnyary", "Verasy", VIA "Flame", M. Evdokimov, N. Babkina, M. Shufutinsky and other performers. "Nightingale Grove", "Raspberry Ringing", "Olesya", "Wedding Horses", "Robin", "Stork on the Roof", "Why, I Don't Know", "Grass by the House", "Zavalinka" have long been recognized as pop classics. They have a lot of light, joy, tenderness, kindness, anxiety, experiences, they give innermost feelings, inspiration, memories, hope, and inspire the hearts of people.

According to A. Poperechny, a song is the fate of a person, and sometimes of a whole generation of people. The poet believes that the work in the song brings him closer to Nekrasov's understanding of poetry and nationality, its civic essence. He is convinced that "poems, hard-won, created about people and for people and set to talented music, are necessary." In the poetry of Anatoly Poperechny there is something that makes the listener think and feel the song. His poetry rises to the heights of folk art, reflecting the fate and spirit of the people and making songs and their performers popular.

The poet believes that conciliarity should always be present in the song, the song should gather, unite, reconcile people. The artistic thinking of A. Poperechny is distinguished by active associativity, deep psychologism, which help him to penetrate into the innermost corners of the human soul. His works are a tribute to the Fatherland, father's house, "crimson ringing" floating from the fate and greatness of the Motherland. His work is a tribute to nature, love, fidelity, the village, the plowman, the blacksmith and the shipbuilder, childhood and adolescence, life in general, to which he considers himself an eternal debtor.

On December 4, 2000, in the State Central Concert Hall "Russia", a jubilee evening dedicated to the 40th anniversary of A. Poperechny's creative activity "Russia, Motherland, Love" was held, at which he performed not only as a recognized People's Poet of Russia, but also as a composer: at the evening, the Borodino march, written in his poems and music, was performed for the first time.

A. Cross- Author of 22 collections of poems and poems: "Full Moon" (1959), "Red Leaves" (1960), "Black Bread" (1960), "Invisible Battle" (1962), "Orbit" (1964), "Russia, Motherland , Love "(1964)," Night Trains "(1965)," The Ninth Circle "(1968)," Fury-Life "(1973)," Core "(1975)," August Field "(1976)," Green Gate "(1981)," Face "(1982)," Selected Poems and Poems "(1984)," Grass at Home "(1985)," Tribute "(1987)," Night Crossings "(1988).

The poet is the author of the drama "The Fiery Legend" (together with L. Mitrofanov). In 1968, the book by A. Poperechny and I. Glazunov "Russia, Motherland, Love" was published, which was conceived as a lyric-epic composition in paintings and poetry. This publication is the result of the creative collaboration of the poet and the artist, who each in their own way reproduce the stages of the historical fate of Russia. A. Poperechny is the author of a large number of publications and critical articles in periodicals.

Anatoly Grigorievich is fond of fiction, especially N. V. Gogol, T. G. Shevchenko and V. M. Shukshin. He likes to spend his free time in nature.

This information is also about a living poet. On May 18, Poperechny Anatoly Grigorievich died in Moscow, he was 79 years old.

The gods whisper to me:
You don't recognize paradise
You will know the torments of hell
Hearts are trembling.
You will follow her -
You will lose your joy
You will lose peace
You will not find happiness.
You will follow her -
You will meet failure "
And you'll make enemies to boot.
You will follow her -
You will pay with bitterness
Let it be too late
Then you will understand ...
People whisper to me
It seems to be not evil,
Sadly lowering my gaze:
You will follow her -
The relatives will curse
And strangers will not bless.
You will follow her
A friend-comrade says,
Consider that our friendship cannot be restored.
You will follow her -
You can't cook porridge with it,
But you will simply disappear from hunger ...
You will follow her -
Life will become bleak
You will follow her -
Unfortunately for myself ...
And I followed her, recklessly,
And to this day, at least I repent,
And I go ...

Do you know the man
Who doesn't care:
Fly at the speed of light
Or jam the wine. Ask for the sun
as alms, Or earn it,
The religion of justice
Putting above all else.
Have you heard about such
Pretending to be an eccentric
Which is easier than ever
Exchange the moon with a nickel.
And he lives, does not grumble,
And all of him tryn-grass,
Since let the horse think,
And the horse, you know, is right ...
I am his indifference
I am his blindness
I will accept, as the world is suffocating,
Gathering saliva behind my cheek.
I ask the sun, as mercy, I will not.
And spitting evil
All the indifference of the world
In it I will strip naked. People,
Prophets of the century, Fly
love.
But
Fear the man in yourself "
Who doesn't care!
