Bykau, Vasil

    0.01 sec.

Bykau, Vasil (1924–2003)

Belorussian writer. In novels such as The Ordeal (1970) and The Mark of Doom (1982) Bykau seeks to crystallize a specifically Belorussian sense of identity by exploring the severe wartime ordeals of small groups of ordinary people under German occupation.

An outspoken critic against Belorussian president Lukashenko, he lived in exile in Finland, Germany, and the Czech Republic from 1998 until his death.
