Adam Hlobus (born 29 September 1958 as Vladimir V. Adamchyk, Belarusian: Уладзімір Вячаслававіч Адамчык (transl. Uladzimir Vyachaslavavіch Adamchyk) is a Belarusian writer, novelist, essayist, poet, publisher, and artist.
He is married to Alena Adamchyk, a Belarusian photographer. He has two children and a grandson.
Activism
He was one of the founding members of the informal association of young writers known as Tuteishyja (Tuteishyja, 1986 – 1990), which was not only a literary group but an active socio-political group as well. Specifically, the union organized a protest against Stalin's repressions called "Forefathers Eve”, during which thousands of Belarusians marched, in October 1988. This became a reoccurring event for Belarusians in the following years. Hlobus was a member of the Writer's Union in 1988 and the Union of Belarusian Writers since 1989.
Career
The first publications of poetry were in 1981 (Weekly Literatura i Mastatstva, journal Maladost). His book Grud, published in 1985, was banned and ruined by the regime representatives.[citation needed] Today the poems and short stories of Hlobus are translated into many languages, and Hlobus's works are published in English, German, Slovenian, Czech, Polish, Russian, Ossetian, and Catalan. In the Russian books Werewolves (released in 1991), Demonokameron (1993), and Lyrics BY clause (2007), they were each composed of poetry translations by Russian poets from Alexander Eremenko, Alexey Parschikov, Vyacheslav Kupriyanov, Dmitry Mizgulin, and lyrical prose translated by Svyatozar Barchenko and Alexey Andreev.
