Creative activity

Fedor Samokhin (1952)

The beginning of his professional writing activity is considered 1949 and the beginning of work in the newspaper "Komsomolets Kirghizii". Fedor Samokhin did not have both legs and moved on prostheses, but he nevertheless often travelled a lot around the republic, got acquainted with interesting people – livestock breeders of Susamyr, builders of the Toktogul hydroelectric power station, oil workers from Izbaskent, cotton growers of Aravan, hydrologists of Orto-Tokoy and the fishermen of Issyk-Kul, the miners of Kyzyl-Kiya and the beet growers of the Kemin valley, who later became heroes of his works such as the stories "Dom moyego ottsa", "Tri ostrova", "Rodina, ya vernus'!" and "Chuiskiye razlivy".[10]

The novel "Rodina, ya vernus'!" is dedicated to the dramatic struggle of the USSR for the return of Soviet children who remained in the territory occupied by the fascist forces and were taken into slavery. The main character of the story, a boy Esen Osmonov, who had been kidnapped and transferred to England by that time, was found and returned home by employees of the Soviet embassy in London.[11]

The main theme of Fedor Ivanovich's creativity was the theme of the exploits of the Soviet people during the Great Patriotic War. His first literary work in this field was the story "Razvedchitsa Klavdiya Panchishkina" about a fighter of the partisan detachment of the Nizhne-Chirsky region. A special place in this series is occupied by the story "Cholponbai", which has gone through several reprints and received many reviews, including from literary critic and Corresponding Member of the National Academy of Sciences of the Kyrgyz Republic Tendik Askarov.[12]

The story was written for the 40th anniversary of the Komsomol and published by the Kyrgyz State Publishing House and an abridged version of the "Molodaya Gvardiya". When writing it, Fedor Samokhin visited the homeland of Cholponbai Tuleberdiev, traveled to the places of battles in which he took part, met in person, and got acquainted by correspondence with his friends and associates.[13][10]

In 2014, an excerpt from the story "Cholponbai" was included in the collection of documents and materials about Cholponbai Tuleberdiev, found in the Central State Archives of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Central State Archive of Political Documentation of the Kyrgyz Republic, Talas Regional State Archives, The Cholponbai Tuleberdiev Memorial Museum and in the Kara-Buurinsky united regional military registration and enlistment office, under the title "Podvig yego bessmerten...".[14][15] In 2019, the story was digitized by the Osh Regional Library named after Togktogul Satylganov,[16] and in 2020 it was included in the section with materials from the Ministry of Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic.[17]

Fedor Samokhin was a regular author to the art and socio-political magazine "Literary Kyrgyzstan". Together with other writers (Sergei Fiksin, Nikolai Imshenetsky, Anatoly Bortsov, Viktor Shvemberger and others), who also chose Kyrgyzstan as their second homeland, he created the artistic world of Russian literature, which became an integral part of the spiritual world of the republic's ethnic Slavs.[18]

Other works of the author on the theme of war were the stories "Malchik iz Stalingrada" and "Don — reka partizanskaya".[19]

In the work of Fedor Ivanovich, essays also used the predominant direction. One of the works in this genre, entitled "Krov'yu serdtsa", was published in the collection of works by Soviet Kyrgyz writers "Geroyi surovykh let". The book also includes the works of Aaly Tokombayev, Chingiz Aitmatov, Sooronbai Zhusuev and other writers.[20] The essay was also included in the collection entitled "Molodye geroyi Velikhoy Otechestvennoy voyny", compiled by Vasil Bykov.[21] Also, the essay was included in the collection "In the name of the Motherland" by the Politizdat publishing house, compiled by the Soviet writer, journalist and Major General David Ortenberg.[22]
