About the book

Boris Pasternak's Doctor Zhivago follows physician and poet Yuri Zhivago through the immense political and social upheavals of early twentieth-century Russia. Against the background of revolution and civil war, Yuri's life becomes intertwined with that of Lara, whose relationship with him forms the emotional centre of the novel. Pasternak combines intimate personal experience with sweeping historical change, exploring love, art, individual conscience and the human cost of political upheaval.
