Konstantin Fedin

Died in 1977

Konstantin Fedin (1892-1977), born in Saratov, studied in Moscow, then left for Germany, where the outbreak of war caught him by surprise: he was interned there as an enemy civilian and did not return to Russia until 1918. He then joined the Serapion Brothers, young prose writers who defended the freedom of literature. A member of the leadership of the Writers' Union, he was appointed its first secretary in 1959. He died in Moscow in 1977.
