“Strogov” is a multi-layered, sharp-plot novel. In the fates of several generations of the peasant family Strogov, many social conflicts and contradictions characteristic of a Siberian village in the first years of the revolution came to light. The struggle of the advanced peasantry for land, clashes with the kulaks, help to regular units of the Red Army that were smashing the Kolchakites, the beginning of the socialist reorganization of the village under the leadership of the party—everything is reflected in the novel and directly tied to the lives of its main characters: Matvey Zakharovich Strogov, his wife Anna, and the grandfather Fishka.
