Pavel Vezhinov

Already in the "RLF", during the fourth and fifth anniversaries, Vezhinov contributed stories that are distinguished by their freshness, originality, and the search for his own style. Most of them, in terms of motives and ideological tasks, do not differ from stories with agitational issues on the most ominous political topics. What is special about them, despite the fact that the author is still searching, has not yet found his topic, is the writer's style, his vital observation, which breaks the narrow plot framework. Even in these stories, a writer is visible who, like St. Minkov, struggles with the routine in the artistic form, with the artistic print, with the outdated artistic vision. The tendencies that bring him closer to St. Minkov, are felt in the widespread use of episodic, lightly shaded images, in the author's already emerging ability to create picturesque images with bright distinctive features and their own artistic atmosphere, in the constant smile, in the search for the artistically original, in the ability to build an atmosphere using insignificant but vivid everyday needs.
