About This Book
Her mourth was almost pressed against his, and her words were like quick, hurried kisses: "You must absolutely go through with the duel tomorrow."
This rediscovered gem by a major, yet neglected, writer - here presented in a dazzling new translation - is an absorbing account of the final days of Czarist Russia.
An absorbing saga about the brutalities of military life upon its own soldiers.

As the novel hurtles toward a startling conclusion, it reveals itself to be a luminous depiction of the end of an era.
