The early years of Alexander Gromov's life are shrouded in mystery. Journalists and fans are mainly interested in the work of the writer - in interviews and in his portfolio, scanty information about childhood and adolescence occasionally slips. Alexander Nikolaevich is a native Muscovite, born in mid-August 1959, into a family of employees.

Literature


In his youth, Gromov was not attracted to science fiction, he read a little Kazantsev, Gansovsky, Gurevich. Once, in the institute's smoking room, they advised the Strugatsky brothers' The Tale of the Troika, which impressed the future writer so much that he literally fell ill with this direction of literature. Three years later, Alexander took up the pen.

Gromov began to try himself in the role of a writer back in the 80s, but his literary debut took place in 1991 - the story "Tecodont" appeared on the pages of the magazine "Ural Pathfinder", and a little later the novel "Bottom Line" was published here. This was the beginning of a dizzying creative career.

In 1995, the first science fiction book "Soft Landing" was published, which was a collection of the most successful works accumulated in the author's desk. The publication brought Alexander Nikolayevich the A. Belyaev literary prize. "Soft Landing", the main novel in the collection, was awarded a separate prestigious Interpresscon award. In the future, Gromov will become a laureate of almost all awards in Russian science fiction, from Roscon to Sigma-F and Star Bridge.

And in 2008, the European Science Fiction Society will name him the best author of the year. Fans of science fiction warmly welcomed every work of the writer, because he did not differ in fertility. Among the most discussed works - "The Forbidden World", "Feudal", "Calculator", "Rebus Factor".

Gromov creates works in the genre of science and historical fiction, in the piggy bank also works with a touch of fantasy. Although the writer himself believes that his works are, rather, "social fiction": in the futuristic scenery there is an ordinary living person with problems understandable to the reader.

In novels and novellas, heroes grow spiritually, evolve, undergo tests with power, money, and discover the ability to self-sacrifice. The author once joked:

The writer should be given credit for the excellent language and sense of humor that is reflected in every book. Now Alexander Nikolaevich prefers to create in the format of small and medium forms, pleases readers with critical articles on the topic of blunders and cliches in science fiction.

Screen adaptations


The writer has long dreamed of making a film based on his work. And now it happened - in December 2014, the science fiction film "The Calculator" was released on the big screens of the country with Evgeny Mironov, Anna Chipovskaya and Vinnie Jones in the lead roles. The director was Dmitry Grachev.

The picture is based on the story of the same name, written by order for the magazine "If". The literary brainchild, according to the author, was tortured, the work was hard. As a result, the planet Khlyab was born with swampy outskirts, the inhabitants of which are punished by exile to the Sargasso bog. Six years passed before the work became interested in cinema.

Gromov wrote the script back in 2006, as a test of the pen in the new craft of the screenwriter. The work was sent to 20 film companies, responses came from seven. But it never came to filming until Grachev drew attention to the "Calculator". The director managed to convince the producers that the story should be filmed. The author was pleased with the screen version, although the script has undergone significant changes. In an interview with Kanobu, he says: 

Alexander Nikolayevich highly appreciated the actors' play, and also liked the special effects.
