As a prose writer, Ragozin made his debut in the magazine " New Youth ", where the novel "Half" was published (1996, No. 17). The fame was brought to the author by the publication of the story-parable “The Battlefield” (“The Banner ”, 2000, No. 9), highly praised by critics. Andrei Nemzer described the features of Ragozin's prose in his review: “Tolstoy’s distant gaze is refracted by Nabokov’s optics. The phantasmagoria captivates with its reliability of details, madness (either of the world around it, or of a broken narrator) is given without excessive affectation and exaltation. The pacifist pathos is not completely reportable slips into moralizing. Subject ambiguities successfully work to create an overall attractive and mysterious atmosphere. " [2] For" The Battlefield "the writer was awarded the magazine’s prize for the best debut of the year.
Dmitry Ragozin publishes novels and short stories in the Znamya magazine and in the UFO publishing house.
Critics note the intellectual richness of the works of Ragozin, whose prose "feeds on world culture." [3] Mikhail Shishkin, in the preface to the collection “The Hypnotist's Daughter” (UFO, 2007), speaks of Dmitry Ragozin’s work: “This prose is a mystery. Everything is brilliant, biting, clever, every phrase is polished, every word arrow is ironed. Each sentence is shot. Prose-shooting, fire in bursts. The game is virtuoso. But the rules are not given, they slip away. As soon as the reader understands what he is reading, he gets ridiculous. This prose is thoroughly parody, but something new grows through the pages, no matter what The action takes place in a country where they suffer from both people with recognizable homegrown surnames, but the borders of this country are peaceful. Ragozin’s world is full of tangible details, chock-full of smells, real to the hurt in the eyes, but unrecognizable. A complete set of world famous stories in stock, but they scroll in place, like nuts with a rip off The traditional literary values fall apart, turn into dust ... This is a very mischievous prose. But mischief is also special, sacred. And these texts give out the main thing - the author has an absolute literary ear. And he plays with the reader on an equal footing, without giveaways, respecting his dignity as a reader. " [4]
The writer lives in Moscow.
