Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Quiet Street' is a poignant and deeply humanistic novel set against the turbulent backdrop of the Russian Revolution and the ensuing Civil War. The narrative centers on a tranquil corner of Moscow where an aging professor and his granddaughter attempt to maintain their scholarly and peaceful existence amidst the encroaching chaos of social upheaval. As the world they knew collapses, the story explores the resilience of the human spirit and the profound ethical dilemmas faced by the Russian intelligentsia during a time of radical political transformation. Combining elements of realism with a philosophical contemplation of nature and history, 'Quiet Street' portrays the clash between the relentless tide of ideology and the enduring rhythms of everyday life. Michael Ossorgin's prose captures the atmosphere of a city in transition, from the refined traditions of the pre-revolutionary era to the harsh realities of the new Soviet order. The novel remains a significant literary testament to the survival of individuality and compassion in an age of collective violence, offering a nuanced and evocative perspective on one of the most transformative periods in modern history.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
