P. 8	8. The beginning of a new era (XXI century)
	However the first year of a new millenium has turned out crumpled and zrjashnym. First, publishing house "Астрель" ("nuclear heating plant") was frappirovano refusal of the author of "Drunk" to sign with them the contract-contract on 5 (five) novels with the through hero and to receive decent advance payment. In vain the author tried to be explained-be justified, that does not burn with the desire to repeat feats Dotsenko, Marininoj, Dontsovoj, Akunin and other "serial" authors-maniacs. As a result frappirovannye "Astrelshchiki" two books of the obstinate author (did not begin to let out the collection of criminal stories and «Dostoevsky's Suicide») which they intended to publish, and, breaking the contract, have not enclosed cent in advertising of the novel "Drunk" …
				But a life — a zebra: who does not know it? In December, 2001 of the author have invited to Moscow to the International anniversary symposium «Dostoevsky in the modern world» and distances-have presented of the whole 20 minutes for the report. Contacts to new publishing houses and as first signs, — an exit in December, 2002 in Moscow publishing house "Algorithm" in quite mass first circulation (3000 copies) and, give the God, not by the last of the book «Dostoevsky's Suicide» were fastened also. Thus, the author quite with quiet soul has prepared vstrenut in April, 2003 the poltinichnyj anniversary. And — vstrenul: silently and modestly, without any banquets and slavoslovy.
	And meanwhile, in the end of May, 2003 there was and at all a fatal event: in same remarkable capital publishing house "Algorithm" the main work of the author — the first in world dostoevskovedenii the encyclopaedia "DOSTOEVSKY" was to light. The people who are an expert in books and the literature in general and in Dostoevsky and encyclopaedias in particular, taking in hands this volume in 800 pages of the big format, run into first time in a shock, having learnt, that one person has created-has written this. The author can admit, that gave rise to this encyclopaedia of 30 years (collected a material) and 1,5 years (sitting for the computer). Small, but too a pleasant makeweight to this grandiose event — the publication in 7th number for 2003 of "Our contemporary» articles «Dostoevsky's Minus» which the author offered magazine in 1995 As they say, better late, than never!
			And absolutely improbable creative kulbit the author in anniversary year has made. As though a little to it was "ranks" almost that the venerable prose writer and already some quite respected dostoevskoveda, entsiklopedista as it took and has written-has composed the play «City of Rams». A little it is has sent-has offered it on the International Festival of young dramatic art-2003. Result: the play not only has passed selection competition, but also became the winner of Festival, which passed in boarding house "Klyazma" situated near Moscow from June, 11 till June, 16th, 2003 (It is possible to click on kartinochke at the left with the mouse and to read the diploma text!) Here so the author on an old age of years has turned to the young and perspective playwright and who is interested in Festival details – welcome to a site Teen party. It is not enough of it: next year the "young" playwright has sent «the City of Rams» and the new play "Dzhurob" on the International competition of playwrights "Eurasia-2004" (Ekaterinburg) where the first play has again passed selection competition and the Play on a modern theme »has won the second award in a nomination«.
