Summary

The last great 19th-century Russian novelist brings his symbolism together with realism, to blend real and fictional people together in the Russian revolutionary period of 1905 that laid the seeds for the 1917 dark Soviet period that Bely anticipates, set in the Paris of Russia, St Petersburg. An intriguing fantasy mixed with reality, dark and bright colors, with a dose of romanticism.

Poor in every way

This was the poorest quality audio book I have had the misfortune to download. The narrator regularly stumbled over his words and there was annoying background music throughout. I’ve had it sitting in my library for a while, otherwise I’d be looking for a refund.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
