Description
The book that served as the basis for the most celebrated television series in our country, "Shadows Disappear at Noon", now for the first time in audio format. A stunning novel about a great and terrible era. Not merely a "family saga" — it is a novel-life, a novel-fate. A book about strong people, extraordinary in everything — love and hatred, strength and courage...
It was written in 1963, yet its heroes, conflicts and problems cannot leave the modern reader indifferent. At the center of the narrative stands a human being, in all the complexity of his spiritual life. It is a family chronicle whose action takes place in the Siberian village of Zeleny Dol over the course of more than half a century.
The history of the small Siberian village of Zeleny Dol became a reflection of the fate of all Russia and the Soviet Union across the first 70 years of the twentieth century: the final years of Tsarist Russia, the Civil War, collectivization, the Great Patriotic War, and the postwar reconstruction.
The heirs of wealthy Siberian families, Konstantin Zhukov and Serafima Klychkova, following the defeat of the White armies and the semi-insurgent, semi-bandit forest detachments in the Civil War, settle under false names in a remote taiga village. They only want to wait out the difficult times, to live to see the fall of Soviet power, to fight it from within, hastening the return of the old order. But decade by decade the new power grows stronger, and new generations are born and build their own lives. Even their own children — Fyodor and Varya — for whom they are the peasants Ustin and Pistimeya Morozov, grow up as strangers to their way of life and values.
