Zahir Dakenov (December 31, 1962, Koryn – May 25, 1995, Moscow) was a Soviet and Russian Kazakh novelist and poet.
Dakenov was born in a Kazakh family in Koryn, Astrakhan region with his family partially tracing back to Tatar ancestors.[1]
Dakenov served in the ranks of the Soviet army, in convoy troops and studied carpentry in Astrakhan. He then moved to Moscow where he entered the Maxim Gorky Literature Institute.[2]
Dakenov died in the spring of 1995 in Moscow after falling from the top floor of a five-story building. Dina Nemirovskaya, another poet who knew Dakenov, insists that it was not a suicide, but an accident.[3]
