About the book

Great Russian Novels brings together Tolstoy's War and Peace in two volumes, Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment and Pasternak's Doctor Zhivago. The Napoleonic invasion, a murder in St Petersburg and the upheavals of the Russian Revolution provide very different settings for questions of conscience, freedom and the individual's place in history. Family life, poverty, faith and political change become intimate human experiences rather than distant abstractions. This four-volume collection offers three distinctive visions of Russian society, united by the psychological depth and moral intensity for which their authors are celebrated.
