He went from an ordinary intelligence officer to the head of intelligence of the division and captain. In January 1947, a small military novel “Star” appeared in the magazine “Banner”. This story, telling about the selfless feat of a group of scouts, stirred up Soviet literature and brought the author wide fame. According to K. Simonov, the “Zvezda” was and remained one of the best books about the Great formidable war. It was tragic because the war was tragic; it was full of love for people of war and deep faith in them. Otherwise, it could not be, because Kazakevich loved these people, knew them, came in their ranks to Berlin. ” E. Kazakevich’s military novels full of drama, – including those included in the real publication “Two in the steppes” and “The heart of a friend”, are still loved by readers, they are translated into foreign languages and have repeatedly filmed.
