This collection of Irina Muravyova's precise and poetic stories explores the impact of history on the lives of the Russian people—the formerly wealthy, the aristocratic, and the educated as well as "ordinary people." Her theme is reminiscent of Dr. Zhivago. The Revolution and Civil War, the purges of the 1930s, and two world wars still resound in the struggles of present-day Russians in a vastly changed society. Ms. Muravyova is one of the finest Russian women authors of our day.
