In 1955, Konstantin Mikhailovich Simonov began to work on the novel “Living and Dead”. From 1958 to 1960, the writer lives in Tashkent. Returning to Moscow, he brings a finished romance. The first part of a large truthful work about the Great Patriotic War was completed, the heroes with whom the reader will go from the first days of retreat to the defeat of the German army near Moscow were found.

Simonov’s trilogy “Living and Dead”, thanks to the breadth of the coverage of events and the reflection of the fate of people in the war, received a special name-the “panoramic” novel or novel-being. Simonov himself admitted that the central in his novel is a man in the war. “It seems to me that in the“ living and dead ”I in vain paid tribute to an imaginary obligation for the novel by the presence of family lines in it. And just it turned out to be the weakest in my book, ”K. Simonov admits. The main task of the author was to depict the truth of the war. This required him to introduce a large number of actors - over 200. Moreover, the fate of many of them remain incomplete. Thus, Simonov shows one of the main dramas of the war - when people went missing. “I cut off these fates consciously,” says the author of the trilogy. Moreover, even episodic heroes are characterized by individuality among Simonov.
