Afterward, Bacharevič worked as a teacher of Belarusian and then as a journalist. His first texts were published in 1993. In the 1990s, he was one of the founders of the Belarusian literary and artistic avantgarde group Bum-Bam-Lit. In 1998, this group published the now cult anthology of their poetry, namely, ''Tazik biełaruski'' ('The Belarusian Basin'). At that time Bacharevič married Ksienija Brečka (Ксенія Брэчка). They have one daughter, Uljana (Ульяна). Between 2007 and 2013, Bacharevič lived in Hamburg, Germany. In 2013, he returned to Minsk and married the Belarusian translator and poet, Julia Cimafiejeva (Юля Цімафеева Yulya Tsimafeyeva). They lived in the Belarusian capital and cooperated in the field of Belarusian literature and culture, until the 2020 Belarusian protests. Subsequently, in order to avoid arbitrary imprisonment and torture, the couple of authors chose emigration and left for Austria.


Writing career

Alhierd Bacharevič is the leading Belarusian-language author of novels, including the novels ''Magpie on the Gallows'' (Сарока на шыбеніцы, 2009), and ''Šabany: The Story of One Disappearance'' (Шабаны. Гісторыя аднаго зьнікненьня, 2012), ''Alindarka’s Children'' (Дзеці Аліндаркі, 2014), or ''White Fly, Murderer of Men'' (Белая муха, забойца мужчын, 2015). The publishing house Lohvinaŭ published an over 900-page novel in six parts ''Dogs of Europe'' (Сабакі Эўропы, 2017), which is deemed to be the writer's opus magnum. The novel received in Belarus the Book of the Year award and was noted in Belarus with the independent Reader's Prize and the second Jerzy Gedroyc Prize. In 2019, the Moscow publishing house Vremia published the Russian translation of this novel (Собаки Европы). The works by Alhierd Bacharevič were translated into English, French, German, Czech, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, Slovene, Russian, Polish, Lithuanian. In 2008, a collection by Alhierd Bacharevič's selected stories was translated into Polish "Talent do jąkania się". In 2010, in Leipzig, the novel ''Magpie on the Gallows'' was published in German in the translation by Thomas Weiler. In 2015, the story of Bakharevich ''The Talent of Stuttering'' was included in the anthology of the best European short prose "Best European Fiction". In 2017, the Small Medical Encyclopedia by Bacharevič was published in Polish in the Lublin Warsztaty Kultury publishing house (translated by Mira Luksha). In 2018, the novel ''Children of Alindarki'' was published by the publishing house "Le ver a soie" in the French translation of Alena Lapatnoiva. Alhierd Bacharevič translated the fairy tale ''The Cold Heart'' by Wilhelm Hauff, which was published at the end of 2009 under one cover with an independent work entitled ''The Translator's Afterword''. Translated from the German language, individual works of the brothers Grimm, Franz Kafka, G. G. Evers, poems by Hans Enzensberger and other modern German poets and the novel by the modern German writer Kathrin Schmidt ''You will not die''. He took part in the Berlin Literary Colloquium, the Theater Festival in Lublin (Poland), the Literary Festivals Vilenica (Slovenia), the Lesefest Osteuropa (Leipzig, Germany), The Month of Author Reading in Brno, international literary festivals in Sweden, Ukraine, Lithuania, Czech Republic and others. He has performed at international book fairs in Frankfurt, Leipzig, Warsaw, Lviv, Minsk. In 2014, he represented Belarus at the International European Writers Conference in Berlin. In 2012, after the members' angry reaction to the publication of Alhierd Bacharevič's essay ''The Dark Past of Kajan Łupaka'' on Janka Kupała in 2011, he left the Union of Belarusian Writers. He had been a member of this Union since 2006. Bacharevič is a member of the Belarusian PEN Club. In 2015, a performance was staged on the Small Stage of the Yanka Kupala State Theater based on the novel ''Šabany'' by Alhierd Bacharevič. In mid-2020 Bacharevič resigned from continuing work on his new

novel ''Сьвятая Кацярына'' Śviataja Kaciaryna aint Catherine(after having completed over 400 pages), because unexpectedly the socio-political reality of the Belarusian pro-democracy Peaceful Revolution accelerated beyond the book's original plot. The novel coalesced around the arrival of a female etxraterrestrial on Earth and the revolution that she triggered. However, in the author's words, 'Mrs Śviatłana Cichanoŭskaja fell from the sky to Minsk, so the manuscript was set aside,' because meanwhile, according to Bacharevič, a peaceful revolution commenced in Belarus. The novelist proposes that despite violent repressions this revolution still continues, directed against the 'regime of the fascist type.' Following the Belarus's involvement in the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, on 2 March 2022, Bacharevič's open letter to the Ukrainians was published, in which he stated: 'I am prepared to take upon myself the shame and disgrace of Belarus for what is happening – in exactly the same way as German writers in the emigration did in the times of the Second World War'. Due to his principled stance, the Belarusian regime's propagandists began to attack and denigrate Bacharevič in the pro-regime Belarusian press. On 17 May 2022, his novel ''Сабакі Эўропы'' Sabaki Eŭropy ogs of Europewas banned in Belarus by placing it on the 'list of extremist material.' In mid-June 2022, the Belarusian Ministry of Education ordered the country's school libraries to be cleansed of the books by over 30 proscribed 'extremist' writers, including. In late July 2022, the authorities decided that the confiscated copies of Bacharevič's 'extremist' novel ''Сабакі Эўропы'' Sabaki Eŭropy ogs of Europewould be destroyed by ploughing them by a tractor into a field. In March 2023, another book of Baharevich, ''Апошняя кніга пана А.'' Apošniaja kniha pana A. r. A's Latest Bookwas included in the list of extremist materials.

Facts

In the 1990s he was the founder and vocalist of the first Belarusian-language punk band Правакацыя ('Provocation'). In March 2022 Bacharevič publicly expressed his opinion about the Russian invasion in Ukraine and declared that “we have the same enemy: the Belarusians, the Ukrainians, the Lithuanians, and even the Russians.

As of 2023, Bacharevič remains in exile in Switzerland.Ганна Соўсь. 2023. «Ёсьць 4 варыянты: змагацца, уцякаць, маўчаць, служыць рэжыму».
