During the Great Patriotic War, he worked at a construction site; in 1950 he graduated from the Indian branch of the Moscow Institute of Oriental Studies. At the same time he published a collection of novellas Thirty-one days, approved by K.G. Paustovsky and immediately identified Aleksin as the creator of the so-called. "A youthful tale".

Коротенькая повесть в рассказах, набор даже не историй, а мини-зарисовок из жизни обычной семьи. Отец-хирург, мама абстрактно «где-то работает», сын школьник, бабушка на пенсии. Очень жизненные, очень точные рассказы... но до смешного крохотные, 4-5 страниц каждый, только начал читать, а уже все кончилось.

Чуть бы побольше объема и событий, и была бы заслуженная «алексинская» девятка. А так, увы — хорошо, но супер мало.
