Yevhen Hutsalo (Ukrainian:Євген Гуцало; 14 January 1937 – 4 July 1995) was aUkrainian writer and journalist.
Hutsalo was born in Staryi Zhyvotiv,Vinnytsia Oblast. He graduated from the Nizhyn Pedagogical Institute in 1959, and was first published in 1960.[1] During the 1960s, Hutsalo was considered one of the "shestydesyatnyky" (the sixtiers), or those who were opposed to the oppressive communist regime.[2] However, later on he chose to be an official writer rather than one opposed to the regime.[1]
He published over 25 novella and short-story collections (several of them for children), a trilogy of novels, and three poetry collections. His works are noted for their detail, lyrical descriptions of nature, psychological portraits, and abundant use of the rural vernacular.[1]
In 1985 Hutsalo was awarded theShevchenko Prize and in 1994 theAntonovych prize.
InKyiv a lane dedicated toField Marshal of theRussian EmpireMikhail Kutuzov was renamed after Yevhen Hutsalo in 2016.[3]
