Description
A novel about the famous feat of the Chelyuskinites. The events described in the novel closely echo today’s reality. Back then, at the beginning of the 1930s, as now, the question of exploring the North and proving our country’s rights to vast territories in the Arctic Ocean was sharply raised. And behind each heroic step were the complicated fates of real people…
Winter of 1934. Otto Schmidt’s expedition prepares to travel along the Northern Sea Route from Murmansk to Vladivostok in a single summer navigation. But the project, conceived as another victory of Soviet scientific thought, from the very beginning encounters unforeseen difficulties. The steamship “Chelyuskin” wasn’t ready for the harsh conditions of the Arctic Ocean. Getting trapped in a snowy captivity, it drifted for several months, then was crushed by ice and sank. The crew managed to unload onto the ice. But what to do next—push on to the shore on their own or wait for help from the mainland? The Chelyuskinites understand: hope can only be for themselves. In the severe Arctic conditions, they enter an unequal fight with the ruthless elements…
