Quiet Don. Volume 1

«Quiet Don» – a large-scale epic canvas telling about the Don Cossacks during the most controversial, turning period of our country's history – the bloody First World War and the fratricidal Civil War, when, in the words of Sholokhov himself, «in a mortal struggle, brother goes against brother, son – against father». What were the thoughts of people during this turbulent time, how was it that the closest, dearest people suddenly found themselves on opposite sides of the barricades and turned into deadly enemies?
In terms of understanding reality and extraordinary accuracy in character description, this work certainly has no equal.

A book that is still talked about and disputed to this day!
