当代苏联著名作家鲍·瓦西里耶夫,曾以创作《这里的黎明静悄悄……》而蜚声文坛。《曾有一位克拉沃契卡》是瓦西里耶夫取材于现代生活的一篇有影响的代表作。苏联人口中女多于男的现象带来了较严重的社会问题,例如大龄未婚妇女多,抛弃或不忠于妻子的多,婚外恋多,离婚多等等。近年来,苏联文艺界反映这一现实的作品越来越多,本篇就是其中引人瞩目的一篇。小说描写一位“老姑娘”,由于长期没有找到对象,就听从单身女邻居的劝告,不定期地找个男人幽会。她的母亲以及她所在单位的那个处,几乎全是单身妇女。一位女大学生嫁给了司机,就备受周围单身妇女的羡慕,连女处长也情不自禁地说:“上帝啊!就是嫁给司机我也乐意!”小说围绕这个题材,既写了当代苏联人对生活的热爱和追求,也写了苏联社会存在的一些弊病,具有较浓厚的生活气息。小说作者今年6月曾来我国访问,他在写给小说译者的信中说:“一个普普通通的俄罗斯姑娘的命运能在贵国为人所知,这使我感到十分幸福。”本篇写于1982年,首次发表在苏联《青春》杂志1987年第1期.
