A few years ago, “Novel-newspaper” published the first-wave emigrant writer Nina Fedorova’s novel “The Family.” The book was a huge success with readers—hundreds of letters poured into the editorial office. Now we are printing a new novel, unknown to Russian readers, by the Russian writer from the USA, “Life.” It is a real family saga spanning several decades—from pre-revolutionary times to the beginning of World War II. Nina Fedorova’s novel echoes such classic works of Russian literature as Mikhail Sholokhov’s “And Quiet Flows the Don” and Boris Pasternak’s “Doctor Zhivago.” The dramatic story of the country is shown through the fates of people—students, revolutionaries, writers, intellectuals, and ordinary working people. The novel “Life” is of interest to readers of all ages—for those who are just beginning life and for those who keep the memory of the great and tragic past of our country.
