"The Road of Calvary" is a trilogy of novels by Alexei Nikolaevich Tolstoy describing the life of the Russian intelligentsia before, during, and after the 1917 revolution. The trilogy includes three novels: "Sisters" (1918—1922), "The Eighteenth Year" (1927—1928), and "Cloudy Morning" (1940—1941).
According to the author, "The Road of Calvary" is a journey of his conscience through suffering and hopes, delights and falls, despair and ascents—reflecting the atmosphere of an entire era.
Tolstoy began work on this book abroad while in emigration, and initially the story focused on the fates of two sisters. However, to complete the novel, he returned to Soviet Russia and finished it on his homeland.
