Sholokhov’s childhood and youth

M.Sholokhov was born on the 24-th of May 1905 in the village of Kruzhilin. His father, Aleksandr Mikhailovich, tried a lot of jobs.

His mother, Anastasia Danilovna Chernikova, was illeterate woman, but kind and very hard-working.She gave her son the biggest heritage — to be the greatest Master. Later the woman’s traits of character helped M/Sholokhov to become a writer of great originality.

When Misha was four, the family moved to the hamlet of Kargin. At the age of seven the boy went to a local parish school. Later a future writer studied in a small town of Boguchar. At that time he lived in the home of a priest.This period was marked by new impressions. Misha was a clever boy and at school age he began writing short stories and poems.The revolution interrupted the boy’s education. In 1918 the Germans occupied Boguchar. The boy was thirteen at that time. So, he had to leave school and return to livе with his family.

Since childhood Misha admired illimitable space of steppes, green shores of the river Don. A strong boy with light-brown hair, sparkling eyes, sun-burnt face was bright and observant. Native dialect and heartwarming Cossack songs were sanity for young Sholokhov. Funny games on dusty roads, fishing, work in the fields, everyday life of Cossacks surrounded the boy since childhood. Sholokhov finished the fourth grade in a gymnasium in Veshenskaya. At that time a bloody Cossack uprising took place in Veshinskaya.

Sholokhov's first work appeared when he was 19. In 1922 a young writer went to Moscow to become a journalist. But, instead, he had to do hard jobs to earn for living. Nevertheless, he attended the writers' seminars where he got literary skills. His first stories didn’t become popular at once. In 1924 only two stories were published. Mikhail dreamed of returning back to Karginskaya, supposing that only in his homeland he would realize his literary career. Native air and dear to heart places helped Sholokhov to recover literally. That period was fruitful in his activity. In 1925, at the age of 19, Sholokhov began writing «Tikhi Don».
