In the thirtieth years with the greatest force talent Platonova is shown. In 1930 it creates one of the main masterpieces — the story "Foundation ditch" (for the first time it is published in the USSR in 1987) — social anti-Utopia on industrialisation themes, the tragiko-grotesque description of crash of ideas of communism (instead of a palace is built the collective tomb). Platons «(I.Brodsky) has subordinated itself to epoch language», the intense which invoice has defined a theme of rupture of an ideal with the validity, motive istonchenija existence, shchemjashche-tragical estrangement of everyone live beings.
However social atmosphere was heated. On the publication «bednjatskoj chronicles» "For the future" (1931) — the ironical description of collectivisation — Stalin's sharp reaction follows, and Platonova cease to print. Even the story on an antifascist theme «the Garbage wind» (1934) has been condemned for grotesque and «irreality of the maintenance».
In the mid-thirties Platons — the writer writing mainly in a table. At the same time, the abundance of plans overflows the writer. It tensely works. At this time it had been wrote the novel «Happy Moscow», the play «Voice of the father», articles about the literature (about Pushkin, Ahmatovoj, Heminguee, Capek, Green, Paustovsky). After creation close on a problematics to "Tchevengur" and "Foundation ditch" to lead "sea Juvenilnoe" (it is published in 1986) and plays "Street organ" the writer gradually leaves from scale social cloths in the world of sincere experiences and love dramas (stories "River Potudan", "Fro", "Aphrodite", «the Clay house in a district garden») in which amplifies psychological modelirovka characters; the ironical relation to love gives way to depth of psychological perusal. Stories about children ("Simeon", 1936) are remarkable — in them are interfaced heroics of "separate existence» to compassion to sirotstvu mankind.
In 1933-1935 after a trip to Turkmenia Platons are created by the story "Dzhan". Its hero conducted prometeevskoj by passion to rescue the people dying out in desert, wishes to learn people of a happy life in a commune, but suffers failure. Lyrical and socially-utopian layers have incorporated here in a single whole. Brightness of a phrase and a word, zvukopis and a rhythm do prose Platonova of 1930th years ekspressivno-sated.
In 1937 Platonovu it is possible to publish the collection of stories "River Potudan" which has undergone to the destructive criticism, Platons again in disgrace, its position is burdened by one more event — in 1938 on forged business unique son Platonova, pjatnadtsatiletny the teenager has been arrested.
