Literary career

Trakhimenok began his literary activity in the late 1980s, mostly in the genre of adventure novel and detective. His stories were published in the weekly Youth of Siberia, and later in the magazines of Siberian Lights, Neman, Spring, Nemiga, Adventurer, Private Life, Belarusian Thought (Minsk), Novel-Magazine of the XXIst Century, Our Contemporary, Don (Rostov-on-Don), Rising-up (Voronezh), Space (Alma-Ata), Ladoga (St. Petersburg), Lights of Kuzbass (Kemerovo), "The Slav" (Kharkov), etc. In his first short novel The Hostage (1978), he described the first manifestations of terrorism in Russia. In the story, the hostages were not the only ones who had been captured by criminals, but also those who had to release them because they were on duty, and in those days they were not ready for this. But this short novel was published only in 1988. A number of Trakhimenok's short stories and short novels are devoted to the events and people's fates during the Second World War. For example, his "military prose" (Lieutenant Priblagin's Case, Crumbs, Dearest kryvinka, To the ceremonial march). Some of his stories have the theme "Children and War" (Crumbs, Dearest kryvinka, Belli puerri). There are author’s essays on this subject as well (War in the lens watering, A drop in the ocean of victory and others. In his social psychological realistic stories Vanity of Vanities, Bird Cherry Bloomed, The Prosecutor's Blood, The Driver, A Terrible Word "Cinema", A Needle in the Square, and Loop of Morbut, the author implies the knowledge of psychology of characters with clearly spelled out motivation for their actions. Trakhimenok is called the Master of Acute Plot because most of his fiction is created in the detective genre or detective fiction.
