The first novel of the trilogy
Mikhailo Stelmakh is one of the outstanding chroniclers of the court and fate of the Ukrainian peasant in the post-October era.
In the novels “Big Family,” “Human Blood Is Not Water,” and “Bread and Salt,” Stelmakh created a vivid, many-colored image of the people and conveyed their contradictory reflections at a complex turning point in history.
What interests the writer above all is a battle of ideas. With great skill, he depicted the moral defeat of the ideas of property in the new world, and passionately praised people’s longing to make the land free of evil. In his books, the future debates with the past—arguing to the end, until a real victory.
M. Stelmakh has a special contribution to creating a new literary hero: a tough “peasant with a poet’s heart.”
The books by M. Stelmakh are written in an expressive poetic language.
In the first part of the chronicle novel “Big Family,” the story covers the difficult and complex processes of reorganizing Ukrainian village life in the 1920s–30s. The events described in the final parts of the novel “Big Family” span the period from the first years of collectivization to the triumphant defeat of the Nazi invaders in the Great Patriotic War.
