Biography


Lyudmila Ulitskaya is a Russian writer, screenwriter, the first female writer to receive the Russian Booker Prize (2001). In 2009 she was nominated for the International Booker Prize, twice winner of the Big Book Prize. Author of the novels "Casus Kukotsky", "Daniel Stein, translator".

Lyudmila Evgenievna Ulitskaya was born on February 21, 1943 in Bashkiria, where the Ulitskys were evacuated in the last years of the war. The early childhood of the future writer passed in the city of Davlekanovo, and at the end of the war, the family returned to Moscow.

In the capital, Lyudmila entered the Moscow State University at the Faculty of Biology, where she chose one of the most difficult and exciting departments - the Department of Genetics. In choosing the future, Lyudmila followed in the footsteps of her parents, who were also engaged in scientific activities. Ulitskaya's mother, Marianna Borisovna Ginzburg, was a biochemist and worked at the Research Institute of Pediatrics, and her father, Yevgeny Yakovlevich Ulitsky, being a scientist and doctor of technical sciences, published a number of books on mechanics and agriculture.

After graduating from the university, Lyudmila Evgenievna got a job by profession at the Institute of General Genetics of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, but worked there for only two years. In 1970, she resigned "on a voluntary-compulsory basis" - the future writer was caught reading and reprinting samizdat, which was not welcomed in those years.

This dismissal, which then seemed an annoying failure, became the first step on Ulitskaya's path to literary creativity. After a ten-year break, a new place of work, thanks to the help of a friend and an acquaintance with Sherling, turned out to be the work of the head of the literary department at the Jewish Musical Theater - here Lyudmila's professional duties included writing plays, staging and reviews of performances.

Literature


In addition to her main employment, Ulitskaya translated poetry from Mongolian, which was rare. The work, requiring creative dedication, the ability to see the world around in the smallest details and great patience, pushed Lyudmila to the idea of ​​her own literary activity, and since the late 80s Ulitskaya's stories and stories began to appear in various collections.

Even before the world started talking about the phenomenon of "Ulitskaya the writer", Lyudmila had already become famous as a screenwriter. The films "Liberty Sisters" and "A Woman for All", for which she wrote the scripts, brought the first whiff of fame, partly paving the way for future prose works. In addition to these two films, Ulitskaya also wrote scripts for the films "Dying is Easy", "This Queen of Spades", "Through Line".

Ulitskaya's first big book was a collection of short stories "Poor Relatives", published in 1993 in French. A year later, her story "Sonechka", written in 1992, was recognized as the best translated book of the year in France. For this work, the writer was awarded the Medici Prize, and in Italy she received the Giuseppe Acerbi Literary Prize. In Russia, the story was published in a collection entitled "Sonechka and Other Stories."

Since then, Ulitskaya has published more than a dozen books, including novels, novellas and collections of stories, which have been translated into 30 languages. In 1996, the family novel "Medea and Her Children" was published, which told about the Tauride family scattered all over the world, whose ancestral nest was in the Crimea.

A year later, the story "Merry Funeral" appeared, which was filmed 10 years later. In the film "Nowhere with Love, or Merry Funeral" directed by Vladimir Fokin, the main role is played by Alexander Abdulov. For the actor, this work became prophetic, because his character Alik, a freelance artist from New York, was dying of oncology throughout the story.

Lyudmila Ulitskaya is the first woman to be awarded the Russian Booker award (for the novel Casus Kukotsky, also filmed as a TV series). This novel was followed by Sincerely Yours Shurik and Daniel Stein, Translator. For writing the first work, Ulitskaya was awarded the Book of the Year award. The second work, dedicated to the biography of the Catholic Jew Oswald Rufeisen, brought Ulitskaya the Big Book Prize.

In 2011, the novel "The Green Tent" appeared, and four years later - the novel-parable "Jacob's Ladder", which also brought Lyudmila the "Big Book" prize. In 2016, Ulitskaya wrote the collections "The Gift not Made by Hands" and "A Man with Connections".

In 2007, Lyudmila Evgenievna founded a foundation of her own name, aimed at supporting humanitarian initiatives. With the assistance of the Foundation, there is a project called Good Books, the essence of which is that Ulitskaya selects books published in Russia and sends them to various libraries.

From the same year to 2010, the writer actively supported the publication of certain books for children, aimed at explaining the cultural, ethnic and social differences of different people. This project was carried out with the support of the Institute of Tolerance and the two largest Russian publishing houses.

In 2011, the writer gave a lecture on personal and political freedom in Russia at a convention at the London Foreign Policy Center. In 2014, Lyudmila took part in the congress "Ukraine - Russia: Dialogue" held in Kiev.

Personal life


In search of family happiness, Ulitskaya married three times. The first time was at the university for Yuri Taits, who was also a student at that time. As often happens with early marriages, their union, even not burdened with any serious problems, did not last long and was filled with disputes about who is more important in a young family.

The second marriage with the doctor of biological sciences, geneticist Mikhail Borisovich Evgeniev, turned out to be longer - with him Lyudmila lived a little less than 10 years and gave birth to two children from him - Alexei and Peter. The eldest son became a businessman, and the youngest became interested in jazz music, but later changed his profession and now works as a simultaneous translator.

Contrary to happy motherhood, Lyudmila's personal life did not work out in this union either. A divorce from Mikhail Ulitskaya considers one of the most difficult decisions in life, but at the same time necessary: ​​over the years of their life together, the relations of the spouses have seriously changed, and at the end of this path Lyudmila felt that they had become strangers. In addition, Mikhail adhered to the traditional family model, in which Lyudmila was assigned the role of a housewife, and she, who felt her calling in something more significant, did not like it.

After a stormy and difficult romance, the writer got married for the third time. This time the sculptor Andrey Krasulin became Ulitskaya's husband.

Lyudmila Ulitskaya is one of those people who have overcome cancer. In the family of the writer, oncology turned out to be a widespread disease, and Lyudmila was internally ready for this diagnosis. Annual medical examination did not help to detect breast cancer at an early stage. When he was discovered, Ulitskaya had been ill for three years. The author expressed her feelings about this in the work "Sacred Garbage", which was published in 2012.

The operation was performed by Lyudmila in Israel. She was struck by the attitude towards cancer patients in this country, the well-established system of psychological assistance. Surgical intervention went well, the disease receded. Later, in her homeland, Lyudmila Ulitskaya joined the board of trustees of the Moscow charity fund for helping hospices "Vera".

Soon there followed an appeal to German Chancellor Angela Merkel with a call to save the "Ukrainian political prisoner", director Oleg Sentsov, who is serving a sentence in a Russian prison. An earlier appeal to the administration of the Russian president was refused.

The writer does not stop her literary activity. Among the last works of Lyudmila Ulitskaya is a story that was included in the "Book of gastronomic stories", which was created by the efforts of 30 cultural figures from Russia, Georgia, Israel, Ukraine, Canada. Among the authors are Narine Abgaryan, Vladimir Voinovich, Julius Gugolev, Maria Arbatova, Veniamin Smekhov. The presentation date of the book is May 31, 2018.
