33 Saroyan, William
(1908-1981) Сароян, УильямПисатель, автор большого числа рассказов (первый сборник "Молодой смельчак на летящей трапеции" ["The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze"] (1934) и многие другие) и нескольких романов. Драматург, автор таких известных пьес, как "В горах мое сердце" ["My Heart's in the Highlands"] (1939) и "Путь вашей жизни" ["The Time of Your Life"] (1939) - Пулитцеровская премия [ Pulitzer Prize], с успехом шедших на Бродвее [ Broadway]. Его произведения полны доброты, непоказного оптимизма и юмора; герои - немного фантазеры и романтики, наивные и непрактичные мечтатели, нередко такие же неприкаянные эмигранты первого поколения, каким ощущал себя автор. Родившись и прожив всю жизнь в Америке, писатель всегда остро осознавал свои армянские корни, часто писал об этом как в художественной прозе ("Меня зовут Арам" ["My Name Is Aram"] (1940)), так и в автобиографической книге "Велосипедист из Беверли-Хиллс" ["The Bicycle Rider in Beverly Hills"] (1952), часто посещал Армению, где по завещанию была захоронена частица его прахаEnglish-Russian dictionary of regional studies > Saroyan, William
